    About this audiobook

    From the Sunday Times bestseller comes a warm, tender and utterly hilarious story about love and betrayal 

    Love can sting. Or make you fly ...

    Romance writer and single mum Stevie Honeywell has only weeks to go to her wedding when her fiancé Matthew runs off with her glamorous new friend Jo MacLean. It feels like history repeating itself for Stevie, but this time she is determined to win back her man. She isn't going to act as he might expect. She isn't going to wail and dig her heels in, she is simply going to pretend to let him go whilst she pursues a mad course of dieting, exercising and self-improvement.

    And it feels like history is repeating itself for Adam MacLean too, who is also determined to win his lady, Jo, back with the same basic psychological tactics. Then he is going to initiate his master plan: Getting together with Stevie to drive Jo wild with jealousy.

    So, like the Scottish country jig 'The Birds and the Bees', the couples all change partners and learn some revealing truths about each other along the way. But what happens when Adam's master plan actually starts to work? And just who will Stevie be dancing with when the music stops?

    • 5/5
      Absolutely loved this story, I've gone through many books but this one was my favorite.
    • 5/5
      I absolutely love listening to these stories! Thank you Millie Johnson!
    • 5/5
      I thought I was in for a ho-hum read with this one, but Milly Johnson’s wonderful words brought to life by the wonderful narrator, Colleen Prendergast, proved otherwise!
      The characters sparkle on the pages with life. The interesting relationships, assumptions, fears and flaws helps to create a sense of endearment for the characters and the hope that their trials will end happily. Do they? I encourage you to read/listen to this book to find out!?
    • 5/5
      Maybe my favorite of Milly Johnson's. I love them all.
    • 5/5
      The kind of story you think about even when you aren’t listening to it. Another lovely story.
