Publisher's summary

What if your plus one could be the one?

Cara has officially run out of men. Her most recent dates have gone from bad to worse, and when her dating app informs her there is no one left in her area to choose from, she is at a dead end.

But with a summer of events ahead of her, she needs to find a solution, fast; someone to keep her company at the never-ending weddings, family gatherings and gender-reveal parties that she can’t face going to alone. So when she meets handsome, confident, Millsy on a night out, she may be in luck. They could not be more different in personality, but he, too, has a summer of events ahead and is desperate to get his family off his back about finding a ‘nice girl’. What if they made a pact to help each other out and be a plus one for the summer? Just as friends of course?

A brand-new romantic comedy from best seller Portia MacIntosh, perfect for fans of Zara Stoneley, Sophie Ranald and Mhairi McFarlane.

I liked

Funny. Good narration and one sex scene that doesn’t give e in depth details. Love a book that makes me laugh.

Oh the hilarity!

This was my first time reading Ms. McIntosh. I needed something to listen to while working & this book was absolutely hilarious, especially when they’re at the Gender Reveal party. I had tears rolling down my face laughing at Cara & Millsy’s shenanigans. Loved their wittiness & banter. I will be reading more by this author.

Absolutely Charming

Books like these are why I love unlimited subscription and libraries. I've never read this author before, never even heard the name. But I was in a reader's funk, so I clicked the first Audible Plus book that looked interesting. I'm so glad I did. I expected a slightly cringe, super sugary mess that I'd have to force myself to finish. The narrator was the first hint I was in for a very pleasant suprise. She's fabulous and not just because I love accents. Once I really gave the book a chance, I discovered fabulously written characters and a story that had all the goofy sweetness I expected with none of the sympathetic embarrassment. I'm so pleased to have not only discovered a new author to follow but a new narrator as well. I'll be downloading another of her books as soon as I finish this review and I can't wait to see if it lives up to the benchmark this book set.

I loved this book!

I laughed so hard the whole way through. Can't wait to read (listen to) another Portia MacIntosh book!

Yes! Yes! Pick this one!

It was a very cute story. It moved me to laughter, shaking my head and disliking the villains. I enjoyed the listen and especially the narrators different voices and dialects for the characters.

Just an over all refreshing experience. Now I gotta go find another by this author!

Lovely read

Karen Cass is absolutely incredible! The story is light and funny. A mixture of Pride and Prejudice meets Bridget Jones.

Better than I expected...

I wasn't going to continue listening to the audio book because of the narrator's accent. But it continued playing in the background the day before Thanksgiving as I was cooking. I didn't turn it off. And before I knew it I was interested in the story. I continued listening the next two days when I had time and just finished it. I'm happy to say I enjoyed it. And I'm already looking for the next book by this author.

Worth a movie

This book will make such clean and perfect romcom! Did not expect it to be this much fun.

So much fun to listen to!

This book hit the right balance in every way. I loved her character development, what she put in and what she left out. Just right.

Sweet story!

I’m going to look for other books by this author. She weaves a nice story.
