When Millie Brady saves Orla Hart's life she doesn't realise how drastically it will change her own - not least because the boyfriend who is asking her to move in with him at the time promptly storms off in a huff.
Actually, Millie's relieved. She's quite happy to enjoy a restful man-free summer in Cornwall. But bestselling novelist Orla has other ideas. She's determined - for her own reasons - that Millie should meet the man of her dreams.
Dropped wallets, roller-skating gorillagrams, the world's most flirtatious boss and a helicopter in the back garden all conspire to produce a summer neither Millie - nor Orla - will ever forget.
