Dream date . . . or an absolute nightmare?
Lisa’s dated a series of disastrous men; Simon’s loved and lost the girl of his dreams. She’s hoping fate might intervene in her love life; he’d prefer that it stopped meddling with his.
Today, they’re meeting, courtesy of the local paper’s ‘Blind Date’ feature – but while Lisa’s looking for that elusive ‘spark’, Simon’s sure lightning doesn’t strike twice. Will theirs be a love that’s written in the stars, or merely another mismatch written up in the Gazette?
From the bestselling author of At the Wedding comes a story of two perfect strangers who might just be perfect for each other.

Matt Dunn has an amazing knack of being able to write a full length book about a certain event or day, and be so wonderfully engaging you don't even realise until you are half way through that not huge amounts of time pass in the book.
In this instance we follow a blind date between Simon and Lisa, who really don't hit it off initially, in fact i could't help but laugh after their first encounter!
From there were are treated to both sides of the story, with their best friends for moral support, as we see what could be described as the longest blind date in history!
There are arguments, awkward moments, times when the pair hate each other, and we are also given insight into their past relationships to build a fuller picture.
It is such a wonderfully engaging writing style that hooks you in, and I found myself hoping for for a happy outcome of this date of many coincidences and moments where you wonder, if either character may see what is in front of their eyes!
Thank you to Lake Union Publishing and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
