Love life

an uplifting and feel-good read perfect for fans of mhairi mcfarlane and beth o'leary! recommended on zoe ball's the radio 2 book club! 'a heart-warming, life-affirming gem . . . full of wry humour' pernille hughes bestselling author of probably the best kiss in the world dr tess carter is no starry-eyed heroine. after all, if your dad left without a backward glance you wouldn't believe in romance either. and the voices in tess's head - you know, the ones that tell you you're not good enough, not pretty enough, not clever enough - well, these voices are very loud. very loud indeed. especially when the disagreeable son of one of her patients starts challenging her every decision. edward russell might have a big job and a posh voice, but tess is determined not to let him get to her. and edward, it turns out, may be less of a grump than he first appears... in the real world, where gentlemanlike manners and out-of-the-blue declarations of love are a story-book fantasy, it's up to tess to decide whose voice to listen to ... and how to make her own heard. 'this is a romcom like no romcom you've read before - and all the better for it! i loved every word' nicola gill what readers think of love life: 'i laughed, i cried and then i laughed and cried some more. it was moving, funny, emotional in all the right measures and kept me wanting to read on' louise 'who knew i needed a romcom set in a hospice?! as it turns out this was actually really funny and thoughtful' clari 'so many layers of depth that make it a compelling read...i really fell head over heels for this touching story' ritu 'my first book by this author and it will not be my last. i would recommend this book for those who are looking for something different in their romance' ashley 'one of my favorite reads in a long time...i liked it so much, i immediately began reading it again' jennifer
