'Frothy and very funny' Sunday Mirror ----- Ruby and Ethan were perfect for each other. Until the day they suddenly weren't. Now, ten years later, Ruby is still single, having spent the last decade focusing on her demanding career and hectic life in Manhattan. There's barely time for a trip to England for her little sister's wedding. And there's certainly no time to think about what it will be like to see Ethan again, who just so happens to be the best man. But as the family frantically prepare for the big day, Ruby can't help but wonder if she made the right choice all those years ago. . . Because there is nothing like a wedding for stirring up the past! ----- Praise for The One That Got Away 'An easy, breezy read' Daily Mail 'The trend for updating Jane Austen continues with this modern take on Persuasion - split between the past and present, and New York and Northumberland. As New Yorker Ruby flies to the UK for her high-maintenance sister's fantasy castle wedding, facing her lost love is only one of her problems. Frothy and very funny' Sunday Mirror 'A smart, funny retelling of Jane Austen's Persuasion that's perfect for a poolside read' Red 'Sometimes there's nothing better than a good love story to get stuck into, but this one is also hilarious and has totally relatable observations of modern life' Essentials 'A modern retelling of Persuasion, The One That Got Away is a fun, fast read about rediscovering a lost love' PopSugar, Best 2017 Summer Books for Women
