Book Description:

A story of love, life and going completely la-la in LA, from the internationally bestselling author of Bare Necessity and For Better, For Worse, Carole Matthews.

One girl in love with two guys…
Isn't that the sweetest taboo?

Sadie Nelson knows that falling in love can be big trouble - especially when she discovers that the best things in life are never free. Her heart starts causing trouble when she first lays eyes on Gil McGann, the sexy and powerful Hollywood producer at the London Book Fair. In no time, Gil is whisking her away from her dead-end job and drizzly old England to join him in the land of the perfect suntan. Then there's Tavis Jones, an irresistibly endearing -- and criminally good-looking -- actor who's soon pulling her heartstrings in a different direction. Suddenly the choices facing Sadie in the home of the famous and the desperate-to-be-famous are enough to drive a good girl insane -- especially when no-one is quite what they seem to be. It's not great to find out that Gil has a sticky ex who won't let go or that Tavis's uncertain orientation may permanently cast him in the role of "good friend". With her real life turning rapidly into a mad movie plot, what does a slightly crazed woman two much in love do?

Great book. I loved every character in this book, even the drunk one. I seriously didn't know who to root for until the end. Great job by Matthews and I will be looking for her books again in the future.

I just love Carole Matthews books. This was no exception. I didn't know who I was rooting for in this book till the end. She does such a great job of making you fall in love with all the characters in the book.

This book is in my top 3 favorite books that I have read so far. I love Carole Mattews and this is my favorite book by her. It is almost hard for me to part with this one. I have read it twice and still can't get enough of it. I promise you that you won't be disappointed with this book if you are looking for a good chick-lit book. It has tons of laughs, plenty of romantic drama twists and you'll get a few stomach butterflies as you watch the story unfold!

After Sadie loses her high-paying, high-powered London job, she meets Gil McGann, a Hollywood producer, while handing out leaflets at a book fair. He asks her out and they spend the night together talking, and in the morning they're starry-eyed. Gil sends her a plane ticket to Los Angeles, but it seems that he has a not-quite ex-wife, Gina, who continues to run to Gil for every imagined crisis. Despite their best intentions, every date Sadie and Gil have turns out wrong. Gil wants to take care of Sadie, too, but she finds herself a job, a roommate, and new friends, including Tavis Jones. He's hot, fun, and always knows just what Sadie needs. Sadie loves both Gil and Tavis. Will Sadie choose one? Will she try to make a go of it in sunny L.A. or fly back to rainy London?

Great book. Not terribly hokey and though the main character is english it sets place in the US so the flow isn't constantly interrupted by overseas slang.
