Story
Lainey has just lost everything. Luckily one little fib (OK, quite a big fib) helps nail her dream job. Soon she's living in a stunning house by the sea, fending off obsessed fans for a retired - if far-from-retiring - actor and organising his charming but chaotic family. Yes, everyone thinks she's part of a couple, and it's tricky keeping this secret. But at least she's not looking for love: with her disastrous relationship history, men are definitely off the agenda.

Summary
Jill Mansell's Sunday Times best seller Head Over Heels is not to be missed by readers of Veronica Henry and Marian Keyes. Jill's novels are loved by reviewers.
Jessie has kept the identity of her son Oliver's father a secret for years. She's stunned when she discovers that the man in question, actor Toby Gillespie, has just moved in next door. The truth's about to come out.
One glance at Oliver, and a little mental arithmetic, and Toby has the situation sussed. Meeting the son he never knew he had is the shock of a lifetime. It's a shock, too, for Toby's wife, the beautiful Deborah, though she seems to take it in her stride. Would Deborah be so relaxed if she knew just how close Toby wants to get to the mother of his firstborn?
As the attraction between them flares up again, Jessie just can't see her way to a happy ending. But no one is quite what they seem, and there are more surprises to come....

shame about the narrator
What did you like most about Head over Heels?
I've always enjoyed this book and was excited to get it on audiobook. It's a nice light hearted tale of love
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Awful. Such a posh/upper class accent. It was painful to listen to at times. Ive read this book many times and never imagined any of the characters wit poh accents, let alone ALL of them.

Patricia Gallimore is an amazingly clever narrator, she really brings the characters to life.
She tells this story with the same enthusiasm as all the other stories I've heard her read.

Outdated and cringey
Many comments though out the book are extremely outdated and have sexist or homophobic under tones. A few times I was actually shocked by what was said- which in a positive way just shows how far we've come as a a society since 1998.
The voices for this book let it down. The men all sound like posh old men and it is hard to visualise them in any other way. The reader is really cringey.

Good story but the narration made it unbearable for me
I listened up until Chapter 8. I enjoyed the storyline but the narration really put me off! The voice artist makes Toby (the main Male character so far) sound like a constipated 85 year old. He’s supposed to be around 40. I just couldn’t bare listening to it, it’s hideous! I literally can’t imagine anyone fancying someone with that kind of a voice, it is just awful to listen to. That’s just my opinion. I returned the audiobook and I’ll get it on Kindle where I can read it (and in my head he’ll have a completely different voice). :)
