From the NUMBER ONE bestselling author. A must-read uplifting romance for fans of When Harry Met Sally and One Day. 'I got utterly lost in Minnie and Jesse's gorgeous story. Every page was a delight.' Laura Pearson

When Jesse Lightning meets Minnie Byrne, he is having a bad day. Reeling from the effects of a very bruised heart, the last thing Jesse wants is a new friend. But Minnie is hard to say no to, and reluctantly Jesse realises that her impetuous playfulness might do him good.

So when Minnie suggests they go on fortnightly platonic dates with no strings, no promises, no expectations beyond good company, Jesse agrees before he has a chance to think too deeply about it.

Two friends.

Five days.

No chance of another broken heart.

Until Jesse reveals a secret that proves Minnie’s heart isn’t as safe as she thought. Thank goodness five days isn’t enough time to fall in love…

Join Zoë Folbigg for an unforgettable story of friendship, love and taking chances. Perfect for fans of Cathy Kelly, Mike Gayle, JoJo Moyes and David Nicholls.

'Oh my heart! From the fields of France to the stars of LA, this gorgeous tale will brighten any day.' Shari Low
