Publisher Description

‘OMFG! I LOVE IT SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!’ Daniel Riding


When Piper James unexpectedly gets a message from her insanely hot teenage crush Rob Kingsford, inviting her to their school reunion, her heart flips. She hasn’t seen Rob in eight years – and he’s always been the one that got away.


Older (but not wiser), fatter (but much happier in her skin), and still definitely crushing on Rob, Piper’s about to come face-to-face with the very best of old friends and the very worst of old frenemies. Add in enough G&Ts and a few too many Cosmos, and there are all the ingredients for a real night to remember… 


Could it be second-time lucky for Piper and Rob, or will she have her heart broken all over again?


A hilarious and uplifting story about facing your fears and being true to who you are – perfect for fans of Mhairi McFarlane, Sophie Kinsella and Sophie Ranald.

Ok

Whist I enjoyed the developing friendships and relationships, I felt they weren’t developed as much as they could be. It’s great to read about a character that doesn’t fit the skinny stereotype, but the positive body message felt a bit preachy and overworked.
