Publisher's summary

A warm and laugh-out-loud funny story of one woman's brave quest to avoid true love.

Best friends Hero and Sunday are holidaying in New York when Sunday persuades the normally conservative Hero to don a siren-red wig and the persona of Lola, a do-anything-anywhere-anytime trapeze artist. Disguised as Lola, Hero crosses paths - and a whole lot more - with gorgeous Oscar. Sparks fly, but Hero can't admit to Oscar that she's not who he thinks she is.

Flash forward two years and Hero is back in Sydney and in a relationship with arch conservative boyfriend Pelham. Life is comfortable, stable. Until she bumps into Oscar, that is. He's determined to pursue and win her back into his arms. He's also convinced that Hero is more like her alter ego Lola than she'd like to admit.

No matter how hard Oscar tries, however, Hero insists that she's nothing like Lola, and she's not even slightly interested in him. Or so she keeps telling herself - and anyone else who'll listen.

But does she protest too much?

From the best-selling author of Love Struck and The Wish List comes a sparkling story about fate, love, cocktails and gorilla-grams.

just what I needed

Fun story! during a time that's been very difficult and dark in our world, it was fun to hear a love story that actually had a lot of humor in it, with twists and turns that kept my attention. The narration was done very well.
Like I said it's just what I needed at this time.

This story is laugh out loud funny and would make a great movie or play. I look forward to listening/ reading other books by this author.

I would definitely recommend this book to my friends and family.

Captivating, Hilarious, Sincere

I loved this book! I usually read books whenever I am doing things, and they’re just background noise.I found myself stopping at what I was working on, just to intently listen to this book.
It is a fun captivating story, with shocking turns around every corner. I think if it were made into a movie it would be slightly cheesy like a Hallmark film. This book however, is not cheesy it is sincere and beautiful.

I loved the Story

I think I need to read this one versus listening to it. I was not big on the narration of it. It is a cute story though.
