Synopsis
Lottie Carlyle isn't looking for love when she meets her new boss, Tyler Klein. Living in a beautiful cottage with her two adorable - sometimes - kids in an idyllic village in the Cotswolds, on good terms with her ex-husband and with friends all around, she's happy enough with her lot. But Tyler's perfect for Lottie and quickly she falls for him - and he for her. Unfortunately, there's a problem. For reasons that are totally unfair, Lottie's children HATE Tyler. When a rival for Lottie's affections comes on the scene in the shape of charmer Seb, the children adore him, and he's certainly a distraction. But he's not Tyler - and he's not even at all what he seems. Lottie's got a problem - but thanks, in classic Jill Mansell style, to a tobogganing accident and a delicious series of mix-ups, all will be revealed and true love will find a way.

Got in mail the other day!

received in the mail from Alejandro2244 of Norfolk, Virginia in a book trade.

Thank you, Alejandro2244. I can't wait to read this book.

Since I had so many books to read that were promised to other bookcrossers, I decided to reserve this book for my vacation. It is a perfect beach read, and that is exactly where I read it. This book was enjoyable, although I was irritated by the extremely bad behavior of the two children. I think that they should have been punished for the extremely rude things they said

The thing I like about Mansell’s book is the happy endings. And I love her characters. Lottie and Freddie are my favorites in this one. Lottie is divorced with 2 kids and she is “making her mind up” between her new boss, Tyler who her kids don’t like and Seb, who her kids adore. There are sub plots in the book that keep it interesting like Freddie and his search for old friends and Cressida and her discovery of a new love. Freddie is the poster child for how to handle bad news. I adored his character. These books are fluff, but I really do enjoy them. The English setting is very intriguing.

I have Stacey's address. Will mail out in a few days.
Thank you tabby cat owner for including me.
I love these books :)

Mailed this out today

Received on Saturday and will be reading shortly. Perhaps this weekend at the beach.


10/15/2008, well I did not get to read this charming book this summer, but I did finish it today. I loved the characters in the book, Tyler, Ted, Amber, Mario and the monsters.


I have decided to have this book continue in bookcrossing by sending it out to a winner in one of the forums contests that I recently entered.

Received from spaceystacey for the Happy Day RABCK contest - wow, is this the 3rd book I've received from spaceystacey? So cool!
