‘No one does funny, emotional, life-affirming love stories quite like Abby Jimenez. She just keeps outdoing herself’ EMILY HENRY
‘Funny and poignant, relatable and aspirational, heart-tugging and satisfying. It is, in a word, perfect’ CHRISTINA LAUREN
‘Abby Jimenez’s words . . . sprinkle humour and warmth all over my life’ ALI HAZELWOOD
‘The sort of emotionally resonant love story I adore – I was captivated from the very first page’ PAIGE TOON
…………………….
When Vanessa Price quit her job to pursue her dream of traveling the globe, she wasn’t expecting to gain millions of YouTube followers who shared her joy of seizing every moment. For her, living each day to its fullest isn’t just a motto. Her mother and sister never saw the age of 30, and Vanessa doesn’t want to take anything for granted.
But after her half-sister suddenly leaves Vanessa in custody of her baby daughter, life goes from ‘daily adventure’ to ‘hourly nappy change’. The last person Vanessa expects to show up offering help is the hot lawyer next door, Adrian Copeland. After all, she barely knows him. No one warned her that he was the Secret Baby Tamer or that she’d be spending a whole lot of time with him and his geriatric Chihuahua.
Now she’s feeling things she’s vowed not to feel. Because the only thing worse than falling for Adrian is finding a little hope for a future she may never see.
