Delia Moss isn’t quite sure where she went wrong.

When she proposed and discovered her boyfriend was sleeping with someone else – she thought it was her fault.

When she realised life would never be the same again – she thought it was her fault.

And when he wanted her back like nothing had changed – Delia started to wonder if perhaps she was not to blame…

From Newcastle to London and back again, with dodgy jobs, eccentric bosses and annoyingly handsome journalists thrown in, Delia must find out where her old self went – and if she can ever get her back.

Loved this so much. Pretty sure I'm falling in love with Mhairi McFarlane book by book.
I definitely recommend you read this, especially if you love a laugh-out-loud, move you to tears, real-character, slow-burn story.
Brilliant.

LOVED IT!

It's the never-similar insults that are 2 parts crude and 1 part creative that get me every time.
And Julie Barrie does the best Sarah Milligan impression - it's a delight to listen to.

Mhairi McFarlane never disappoints

I really enjoyed this story. Light, at times funny, with likeable characters. The narration suited the style of the story and the main character.

in the past week I've become a die hard McFarlane fan, and am already dreading running out of her books to read for the first time. this one did not disappoint being funny, with well rounded, relatable characters, aspirational romance, a satisfying moral center and excellent vintage clothing. the narrator did a great job with all the British accents... at least to my NZ ear, but (spoiler) her Aussie was so bad that it actually added to the villan's repulsiveness.

excellent story and narration
