She's at the top of her profession, but Jo's social life is as much a game of survival as her work.

Where your best friends think nothing of cancelling at the last minute, ten times in a row. Where commitment is a 'pencilled option on mutual time'. Where flexibility is the new etiquette that disguises plain rudeness. And success at work is everything. So it's more than a little inconvenient when Jo falls for a gorgeous singer, an upperclass dropout with an unreasonable attachment to old-fashioned, human values. What is she thinking of, and how on earth will she explain him to her friends?In Daisy Waugh's sparkling satirical novel two worlds collide in a delightfully and hilariously messy fashion – but will true love prevail?
