The back says:

Love is a four letter word
... and she never wanted to hear it again.

Sex. Yes. She remebered that.
Wasn't that the thing that happened somewhere between the talking-and-going-out-to-dinner bit and the sobbing-and-eating-too-many-biscuits bit? Still Bella was sure she could handle some - preferably before her as yet unopened packet of condoms reached their expiry date. She must be practically a virgin again by now, all sealed over like pierced ears if you don't wear earrings for too long.

But the 'L' word? Uh-huh. No way. She never wanted to hear it again. There were things in her past which needed to be put well away, like the 27 boxes of clutter she'd brought from her old flat. And having changed her job, her town, her entire life - the one thing she wasn't about to change was her mind.

'Simply wonderful! I was totally enchanted' - Fiona Walker


The first 70 pages started a bit slow, but after that I couldn't stop reading. A very romantic story, with a few very serious parts as well (about which I'm not going to talk, because that would spoil to much, but they really make this book worth more).
Not incredibly funny or anything, but well written. I'm glad I spent my time reading it!
I'm going to look if there are enough interested people to make this a Bookray, and otherwise I'm going to send it to someone who has it on her wishlist.

Edit December 2. 2004:

The rules for this BookRay:
1. Reading has to be relaxing, I find. So I'm not going to set a rule that you have to finish the book within one month or within three weeks. But of course it's not preferable that the book will stall somewhere, and keeping it for two months is not preferable either.
2. When the book arrives at your address please let us know that you received it, by making a journal entry.
3. Start reading :-) , and when you're halfway through PM the next person for her address.
4. When you've finished the book, make another journal entry with your findings.
5. After that send the book to the next person.

RELEASE NOTES:

This book is now starting its journey, and off to em64 in Finland. Happy BookCrossing!

The book arrived today, thanks wilmar! Now I have something interesting to read for the Christmas.

Got the book yesterday and finished it already today! So it was a fast- read and an entertaining one too. At first it was a bit slow and it was a bit difficult to keep track on what is going on and when but when it got started I really liked it. Why is it that many books have a very slow beginning but once you have managed to go through the first 50-100 pages you can't stop reading? Especially I liked it when the two main characters were discussing, it was a lot of fun. I just love that dry British sense of humour... It was romantic but not too tacky-romantic.

Will send it to katybean once I have the address...

Katybean

Hi everybody,

I'm afraid the book got lost between the UK and Iran....
If I ever bump into another copy of this book I will give it a new go.

I'm sorry for now.

Best of everything,
Wilmar
