Publisher Description
Fans of Beth O'Leary and Mhairi McFarlane will LOVE this fresh and funny rom-com
Chloe Fairway has found the perfect man . . .
Stuck in a Production Assistant job and living at home with her parents after a painful breakup, it's fair to say that thirty-one-year-old Chloe isn't where she wants to be in life.
The last thing she needs is to face the people who once voted her "most likely to succeed" at her upcoming ten-year college reunion. And she definitely doesn't want to see her former best friend, Sean Adler, who is now a hotshot film director living the life Chloe dreamed of.
Desperate to make a splash-and to save face in front of the man who might be the one that got away-she turns to a mysterious dating service.
Enter Rob, her handsome, well-read, and charming match, the perfect plus-one to take to her reunion. The more she gets to know him, the more perfect he appears to be.
. . . Except, of course, for the catch
"Sharp, delicious, romantic" B.K.Borison

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Cousens (Is She Really Going Out with Him) questions what makes the perfect man in this entertaining sci-fi-tinged rom-com. Chloe Fairway dreads her Oxford college reunion. Her fellow classmates are extremely successful, especially her former best friend turned Hollywood screenwriter, Sean Adler, while Chloe, who had great hopes of becoming a writer herself, is stuck working as a PA for a film producer and living with her parents in London. Not wanting to show up without at least a date, she signs up for secretive new dating service Perfect Partners, which promises to match her with her ideal guy. Rob Dempsey, the man she's paired with, is exactly her type in both looks and personality and he's demonstratively smitten with her. Chloe is thrilled—until she learns that Rob is a robot programmed to her exact specifications. Still, she takes him as her date to the reunion—where she reunites with both Sean and another friend, John Elton; reexamines their shared past; learns she can't trust the glossy facades she sees on social media; and feels unexpected sparks with a perfectly imperfect man. Some serious suspension of disbelief is required, but Cousens has a lot of fun with her premise, and it's easy to root for Chloe to find true love. Readers will be charmed.
