From amazon.co.uk:

To her great surprise, Lara Fenton is asked out by gorgeous banker, Hugh Armstrong-Henderson. But on their dates Hugh acts rather strangely, and it gradually becomes apparent that he's in love with someone else. Then Lara begins to realize her feelings for her flatmate, Simon. But is it too late?

Funny and light read, it's quite predictable but I've come to love Chris Manby's humour. This was the third book by her that I've recently read. It's available for other Bookcrossers now or it will be released into the wild.

A rather quick read, however nice turns and somehow realistic. I would have liked to read about the emergin love between Simon and Lara, but this was left to the fantasy.
Lara is a little bit too clumsy to be real (ruin the wedding dress... and spilling the champagne over herself during Hugh's speach...), but it does not spoil reading the book.

Picked this up at the Bookcrossing English Meetup this evening. I have liked a few of Chris Manby's books but there are others I didn't like. Will be interested to see if this one will be a hit or miss!
