About this listen

 Everyone gives their friends advice when it comes to dating, but what happens when it all goes wrong?

'You can't put it down once you've started it!'
NETGALLEY REVIEWER
____________________________________

Eve doesn't have time for dating, but having watched her best friend and flatmate have her heart broken one too many times, she reluctantly volunteers to play her Cupid.

Max is too much of a hopeless romantic to find the algorithms of online dating anything other than clinical, but he lives with his romantically-challenged best friend who desperately needs his advice.

And after all, what are friends for?

As Eve and Max become more involved in their best friends' relationship, they quickly realise there is a fine line between instruction and imitation.

Especially when they find they can't stop thinking about their best friend's date. . .

SLIDING DOORS meets THE FLATSHARE meets ONE DAY IN DECEMBER in this sweeping, romantic comedy for the digital age! Perfect for fans of Josie Silver and Beth O'Leary.

With humour and poignancy, this is such a clever book, a beautifully written modern story of 'will they, won't they', but so much more. Highly recommended!

This was an easy read enjoyable read based around 2 sets of friends and the trials and tribulations of Internet dating. Max sets up a profile for Tom and Eve sets one up for Becky but neither profile are a reflection of their true selves and are infact more like profiles that should be set up for Max and Eve. The 2 carry on the fake profiles by messaging Tom and Becky pretending to be them. Sounds complicated right?! The story had some good witty banter throughout but it was also laced with some heavy storyline too. I just wish the deception hadn't gone on as long as it did and that we got more of a conclusion about what happened with Tom and Becky as they were pretty perfect for each other after all. I really enjoyed the epilogue it made me smile.
Both the narrators were new to me and i wouldnt hesitate to listen to something else by them. Both had very enjoyable voices.
Overall an enjoyable story.
