Tropes & Themes: Forced proximity / Hen-do vs stag do / Sun-drenched romance / Sweet and fun / Rivals to lovers / Set in Spain

One bachelorette party. One stag do. One double-booked villa and only one way to decide who gets it: a competition.

Workaholic Molly is buzzing when her best friend tells her she’s getting married. As maid of honour Molly can’t wait for the perfect bachelorette party in Spain. What could be better than a week in a stunning villa? Sun, sea, cocktails and gossiping – and best of all, no boys allowed. But when the hens arrive they discover that they are not alone. The villa has been accidentally double booked by a group of stags who make it very clear they’re not leaving!

It’s a disaster, and no one wants to give up their place in paradise. Attempts at compromising fail instantly, so their only option is to have a winner takes all competition. Battle lines are drawn and it is girls v boys - but will the competition be too hot to handle?

As their rivalry heats up, and Molly finds herself gravitating towards stag Travis, it’s clear that he’s enjoying the attention - but Molly can’t let herself get distracted, and under no circumstances can she fall for the enemy.

Loved it!

Such a funny, fun & feel good easy listen. It was the perfect easy listen. Great story & wonderful reading. Would absolutely recommend!

It’s a cute story. One of my best authors I always look forward to her books.

The cussing in the book was different for her, and I did not enjoy that but overall it was an easy read. There’s a few spots that you smile a few spots that you may laugh. But definitely a romcom. I love this author. I look forward to all of her books.
