The wish list by Shopia Money-Coutts

 


DESCRIPTION

‘’The new queen of the rom-com returns’’ i

‘’Saucy... fizzing comedy in this slice of escapism’’ Metro

‘’Full of wit, warmth and heart’’ Beth O’‘Leary, The Flatshare

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

Gwendolyn nodded. ‘’Exactly. But for what you want from a man, not ASDA.’’

Florence Fairfax isn’‘t lonely. She loves her job at the little bookshop in Chelsea and her beloved cat Marmalade keeps her company at night. She might have been single for quite a while - well, forever actually, if anyone’’s asking - but she’’s perfectly happy, thank you. And then Florence meets eccentric love coach Gwendolyn, and everything changes.

When Gwendolyn makes Florence write a wish list describing her perfect man, Florence refuses to take it seriously. Finding someone who likes cats, has the sexual athleticism of James Bond and can overlook her ‘’counting’’ habit? Impossible! Until, later that week, a handsome blond man asks for help in the bookshop...

Rory seems to fit the list perfectly. But is he ‘’the one’‘, or simply too good to be true? Florence is about to find out that her criteria for Mr Right aren’‘t as important as she thought - and that perhaps she’’s been looking for love in all the wrong places...

‘’Impossibly hilarious’’ Abbie Greaves, The Silent Treatment

‘’Love, love, loved it. I might start re-reading again!’’ Lucy Vine, Hot Mess

‘’The perfect escapist read!’’ Cressida McLaughlin, The Cornish Cream Tea Summer

‘’Funny and biting, I couldn’‘t get enough’’ Laura Jane Williams, The Love Square

‘’Touching and totally addictive’’ Zara Stoneley, The First Date

‘’Properly funny. I laughed my way from the first page to the last’’ Alex Brown, A Postcard from Italy

The wish list is a laugh out loud , fun and light read , perfect for the lazy sunday afternoon. 

The main character is a librarian that has to make a wish list for how the perfect man would look like and , surprise! She actually finds someone very similar but is he really The One?

There's a big mixed cast of characters here and each one adds something good to the overall story, from her half sisters to her step mother and let's not forget Marmelade, her cat.

If you are looking for a light, fun and fast romantic story, this one is definitely for you.
