The One You Really Want

by Jill Mansell

Nancy can't quite believe it when her Christmas present from her husband turns out to be a sit-on lawnmower. It's not just that gardening's way down her list of fun things to do but she knows for a fact that Jonathan's been spending a lot of money on jewellery. So who's getting the diamonds? Nancy's best friend, Carmen, gave up on romance when she lost her adored husband. When you've been through that kind of pain why would you ever want to get close to a man again? What Carmen needs is a man to wake her up - but choosing the right one isn't going to be easy. Mia was desperate to come to London to live with her dad. Once she's met the potential step-mother-from-hell he's dating, she's determined to play Cupid - with just about any woman she meets. But her arrows are just as likely to cause chaos as to ease the path of true love.
