    • Au lycée, Anna était grosse, laide et terriblement mal dans sa peau. À trente ans, l’époque où elle était le souffre-douleur de son bahut, et de James en particulier, lui semble déjà loin : elle est belle, elle a un boulot de rêve, et la vie lui sourit. Mais le destin nous réserve parfois d’étranges surprises, et l’homme qui lui a infligé la pire humiliation de sa vie refait surface. Contre toute attente, James est devenu prévenant, drôle, spirituel... et il n’est pas insensible au charme de la ravissante jeune femme avec laquelle il organise une exposition. Il n’a pas reconnu en elle celle dont tout le monde se moquait dix ans plus tôt. Profondément troublée par ces retrouvailles inattendues, Anna est prête à tout pour ne pas retomber amoureuse de son amour de jeunesse... « Un roman éblouissant ! » The Sun « Aussi drôle que poignant, ce livre est bien plus qu’une simple comédie romantique. » Kirkus

      +++Aufwendig gestaltete limitierte Erstauflage mit Farbschnitt, nur solange der Vorrat reicht+++ Wie behältst du deinen Traum-Mann, wenn ihn auch alle anderen wollen? Bestseller-Autorin Mhairi McFarlane erzählt in ihrem hinreißenden, lustigen und klugen Liebesroman, was nach dem Happy End passiert: sehr authentisch und voller echter Gefühle. Edie hatte mit Schauspieler Elliot Schluss gemacht, weil Nottingham und Hollywood einfach nicht zusammenpassen. Doch als er überraschend an Weihnachten vor ihrer Tür steht, schlägt ihr Herz Purzelbäume. Ein Blick genügt, und beide wissen, dass sie es noch einmal miteinander versuchen müssen. Dummerweise trennt sie nicht nur ein Ozean, wenn Elliot in Hollywood ist: Die Klatschpresse verfolgt sie unerbittlich, und als Edies Freunde zur Story werden, wird es richtig hässlich. Zudem stellt Edies Chef den charmanten Declan ein, der immer zur Stelle ist, wenn sie einen Rat braucht. Bald fragt Edie sich, ob sie und Elliot wirklich ein Märchen sind – oder eher eine Warnung für alle, die einen Traum in die Wirklichkeit zwingen wollen? Authentischer Liebesroman mit echten Gefühlen, Situationskomik und einem Hauch Glamour. Die Geschichte von Edie und Elliot wird hier zu Ende erzählt, während die Romane unabhängig voneinander gelesen werden können.
