Publisher's Summary

‘You want me to write a list? Like a shopping list?'

Gwendolyn nodded. 'Exactly. But for what you want from a man.’

Florence Fairfax might have been single for quite a while – well, forever, actually – but she isn’t lonely. She loves her job at the little bookshop in Chelsea and her beloved cat Marmalade who keeps her company at night. She’s perfectly happy, thank you.

So when Florence meets an eccentric love coach who asks her to write a wish list describing her perfect man, she refuses to take it seriously. Until later that week, Rory, a handsome blond man with the sexual athleticism of James Bond she asked for just happens to walk into the bookshop....

Rory seems to tick all of the boxes on Florence’s list. But is she about to discover there’s more to love than being perfect on paper?

A gloriously funny and feel-good read for anyone searching for their perfect match who ticks all of the boxes. Fans of Sophie Kinsella and Beth O’Leary will snort with laughter at this hilarious and heart-warming listen.

I'd give it 5 stars if narrated by an actor.

Loved the story, the narration was annoying. Still will continue to read her books although they sound like a reading to a classroom..
Please, Sophia, hand over your stories to an actor who can change up the characters' voices to sound different to each other. It was so annoying to have them all sound so similar and your efforts were appreciated, but not 5 stars worth I'm afraid. The story was 6 stars.

Witty and heartfelt.

It made me laugh and it made me cry. Having the author narrate her own book was excellent, as she put inflection and emphasis in all the right places for the story to truly drag me in. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Good light hearted listen

Not sure to begin with but progressed to funny and interesting. Kind of weak soft ending but wasn’t a believable story anyway,
