Especially when they appear to be your opposite in every way… The perfect read for fans of Ruth Jones, Jane Green and Sheila O'Flanagan, from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Just My Luck and Both Of You… Jo is a hopeless romantic. Worried she let her soulmate slip away, she's chasing her past all the way to Chicago to break up her ex-fiancé's wedding. Dean is a resolute cynic.

In the time it takes to fly from London to Chicago, each finds something in the other that they didn't even realise they needed.
