Desperate for a change, she looks to her friends for inspiration. Every single one of them is paired off, perhaps that's what she needs too.  So, she starts dating again. But everywhere she goes - amid the hilarious and scarring dates - there's Peter. Good old, oddball Peter, her closest friend from university. He's always been firmly in the friend zone but something's happened lately - he seems taller, more handsome and suddenly making him smile is Bea's favourite thing.  But how can Bea possibly risk their friendship? And how do you even go about taking someone out of the friend zone? What if Bea and Peter were only ever meant to be just friends... ___  Readers are falling in love with Just Friends:  ***** 'This book is funny, warm and cheeky - perfect' ***** 'I fell completely in love with this book . . . so witty and keenly observed and FUN'  ***** 'I snorted and laughed all the way through - but the emotional pull was also brilliant, and I found myself rooting for Bea'","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49539854303505,"sku":"GOR011134008","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49572323983633,"sku":"GOR011218211","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49736949006609,"sku":"NGR9780552177252","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50355532792081,"sku":"CIN0552177253G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51317434941713,"sku":"GOR012933186","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0552177253.jpg?v=1750943442"},{"product_id":"ick-book-holly-mcculloch-9781408748855","title":"The Ick","description":"'Absolutely loved this book!' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'You keep saying \"just one more chapter\"' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'Hilarious. I laughed so much' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'I raced through this funny story. It romps along' Daily Mail  Six foot two with blue eyes ✅ Dimples and strong arms ✅ Giant turtle backpack ❌  Gem's date is looking promising. Atlas is 6'2, with blue eyes, dimples and strong hands that look like they would be at home wielding an axe. But when he says he eats soup for lunch, Gem is immediately hit with the ick. Suddenly she's painfully aware of his giant backpack that makes him look like a turtle, his colourful socks, and his hair that's just a bit too floppy.  Gem, who collects icks like others collect loyalty points, is adamant that the phenomenon is her instinct kicking in, but her housemate and best friend Shanti disagrees, and challenges Gem to take part in a study for her psychology course: Is intuition real?  Gem eventually decides to take part, but doing so means she has to break all her own rules. She sees Atlas for a second date, a third, and even a fourth, until she starts losing count. It's all for research purposes, of course - but what if the impossible happens and Gem falls for Atlas? And if he finds out she's being paid to date him, will he ever forgive her?  Forced-proximity meets enemies-to-lovers in this spicy, swoon-worthy and totally hilarious romantic comedy. Fans of Emily Henry, Ali Hazlewood and Mhairi McFarlane won't be able to put this sizzling romance down.  'Holly has perfected the art of comedy writing' Sophie Cousens  'Holly is the queen of the clever feel-good read - hilarious, heart-warming and real, with characters you'll fall in love with and be thinking about long after you finish the final page' Lucy Foley  'The perfect subject: icks are hilarious and Holly has managed to weave them into a gorgeous, heartfelt and sexy story' Abigail Mann  'Hilarious and charming, The Ick explores what happens when an immoveable avoidant-attachment meets an unstoppable hunk. McCulloch's gift for comedic asides shines brightly here but never overwhelms the delicious, tender romance blossoming between Atlas and Gem. An absolute must for rom-com fans!' Lindz Mcleod  'Opening a new Holly McCulloch book is a real treat, and The Ick contains everything I love in a novel: relatable characters, hilarious one-liners, and romance that gives you spaghetti legs' Nicola Gill  'Absolutely loved this book! I loved the characters' storyline and could relate to being a bit picky when it comes to finding a partner' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  'This book was full of deadpan humour and I loved that about it. I adored Atlas - I have a thing for cinnamon-roll heroes, and he was very sweet... Made me laugh a lot' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  'Icks are something I find hilarious for the pure ridiculousness of some of them so a whole book about it intrigued me... This is a fun read where you keep saying \"just one more chapter\"' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  'Boy did this meet every expectation. This book is so light and hilarious. I laughed so much. I can't recommend this enough!!' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  'Loved it - a perfectly pitched modern day romcom with some loveable characters and some deliciously awkward situations. The storytelling was fab, the pages flew by and I was totally rooting for Gem and her man throughout' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  'I loved Atlas - there's just something irresistible about kind, soft-hearted heroes, and he was genuinely sweet.' Goodreads reviewer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐  'I loved this book! Funny in all the right places! I love Holly's writing style! Will definitely be recommending this one!'
