Holly Colshannon is a newspaper reporter who thought things couldn't get any worse than having to cover pet funerals. Then she's given the position of crime correspondent, a job that no one wants. Detective James Sabine is not at all pleased about the fact he now has to practically babysit a reporter who will probably interfere with his investigation. Besides, James has other things to worry about, like his up comming wedding. Through a series of hilarious events, James discovers that his fiance might not be the right girl for him and Holly starts to realise that the hard exterior and cold personality of James, might not be who he really is.

Anyone looking for a good romantic comedy. The author, Sarah Mason, really shows off true British humour.

The storyline of how Holly helps with the investigation. She makes a nuisance of herself, but her true character comes out and a reader really warms to her.

Writes outstandingly. She brings in every aspect of a good romantic comedy, without going overboard with certain things that happen within the story. She manages to make this a laugh out loud book that everyone can enjoy.

It's not over the top and very believable. I couldn't put this book down.
