About this listen

Ruby Matthews has a plan - 12 jobs in 12 months, until she finds the one of her dreams....

After an unexpected redundancy, Ruby begins to question her priorities. Inspired by a quote from Kahlil Gibran about loving your work, she launches her mission to find the ideal job.

Her year of gainful (and sometimes painful!) employment includes nannying for clients in the South of France, dealing with embarrassing ailments in a Harley Street clinic, waiting tables in a buzzy Soho cafe and meeting the celebs of years gone by in a home for retired actors. And even though love is no longer top of her list, relationships seem to start happening along the way, which sees her handing out some P45s of her own!

But will any of the jobs, or the men she meets, see her dreams come true? Or will Ruby just end up back where she started?

Discovered Nicola May after downloading cocklebury bay series. love the great mix of characters and happy endings along with serious issues covered mixed with great humour .. fabulous 👍

Great Characters, laugh out loud lines and scenarios 🤣😁

the overall story line was very cute, the main character very relatable.
however the characterisation of the best friend needs reviewing, her accent swung from Welsh, to northern Irish, but at no time sounded like she was from Dublin. it was quite painful to listen to.

cute storyline

Not the best story, although entertaining at points. The narrator wasn't my cup of tea, with some dodgy accents, but she was at least clear.

It's ok

Great story line with some real laugh out loud moments. Enjoyed the accents from the narrator.

Easy listening and light hearted

I really enjoyed this quirky book. I like it when I can’t guess where the story is going so I liked the ending too.

Great book
