Sometimes life just takes the biscuit …
Abby Spencer knows she can come across as an airhead – she talks too much and is a bit of a klutz – but there’s more to her than that. Though she sacrificed her career to help raise her sisters, a job interview at biscuit company Crumbs could finally be her chance to shine. That’s until she hurries in late wearing a shirt covered in rusk crumbs, courtesy of her baby nephew, and trips over her handbag.
Managing director Douglas Faulkner isn’t sure what to make of Abby Spencer with her Bambi eyes, tousled hair and ability to say more in the half-hour interview than he manages in a day. All he knows is she’s a breath of fresh air and could bring a new lease of life to the stale corporate world of Crumbs. To his life too, if he’d let her.
But Doug’s harbouring a secret. He’s not the man she thinks he is.

As I was reading the prologue I was unsure what to make of this book initially,, but what it did do was set the scene perfectly for a great insight into Abbie's past and what makes her the woman she is today.
I was inspired reading Abbie's story at such a caring person whose heart is constantly torn and that had to grow up fast.
I loved and as amused by her variety of sisters and family members, And it was Abbie's new book Doug that I found myself warming to quite quickly.
Especially after he hires Abbie after a disastrous interview but one which really showed off the quirks in her personality to they;re fullest.
Doug has a great back story to him too, one with more facets than you may expect, and seeing all of his hidden talents and qualities was a lot of fun.
Abbie is just slightly clumsy and her favourite swear is Oh Crumbs! which makes working for a biscuit manufacturer called Crumbs that bit more amusing.
Unfortunately this book didn't leave me craving biscuits but did leave me smiling and incredibly entertained.
Thank you to Netgalley and Choc Lit for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
