The Plus One [n] informal a person who accompanies an invited person to a wedding or a reminder of being single, alone and absolutely plus none 'Brilliant and bonkers in equal measure'⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'Had me laughing the whole way through' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐'When Harry Met Sally meets The Devil Wears Prada' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Polly’s not looking for ‘the one’, just the plus one…

Polly Spencer is fine. She’s single, turning thirty and only managed to have sex twice last year (both times with a Swedish banker called Fred), but seriously, she’s fine. Even if she’s still stuck at Posh! magazine writing about royal babies and the chances of finding a plus one to her best friend’s summer wedding are looking worryingly slim.

But it’s a New Year, a new leaf and all that. Polly’s determined that over the next 365 days she’ll remember to shave her legs, drink less wine and generally get her s**t together. Her latest piece is on the infamous Jasper, Marquess of Milton, undoubtedly neither a plus one nor ‘the one’. She’s heard the stories, there’s no way she’ll succumb to his charms… Your favourite authors LOVE Sophia Money-Coutts ‘So funny. And the sex is amazing – makes me feel like a nun!’ Jilly Cooper
