Synopsis

The funny, uplifting novel from the Sunday Times and multi-million-copy bestseller

Fern has the voice of an angel but as an underpaid barmaid and pub singer, she's going nowhere fast. Then she enters the TV talent show Fame Game and this could be her big break. But then, things are never that simple.

Evan David's exquisite tones have enthralled opera buffs throughout the world. Everyone around him panders to his every need but what he really needs now is a break - from everything.

Two worlds collide when Fern becomes Evan's assistant and neither is prepared for the dramatic effect they have on each other. Something happens when they're together, and it's more than just music . . .

Her bar gig with her BFF Carl – who loves her, but she is isn’t in love with – is the only thing keeping her and her mouse friend, Squeaky, with a roof over her head. She’d do anything to help her brother and his 5 year old severely asthmatic nephew, b......more

3.5 stars rounded down. I need a chick-lit read every so often, and Carole Matthews is high on my list of favourite authors for the genre. This one read beautifully, I read it while commuting so finished in one (albeit long) sitting, the characters and setting captured my attention very early on and......more
