It Had to Be You by Keris Stainton

'Utterly addictive. I LOVE it ' Colleen Coleman

Twenty-five-year-old Bea is a hopeless romantic with a hopeless love life - until now. New beau Danticks all the boxes: he's good-looking, kind and thoughtful. The complete opposite of Bea's ex, who once threw her out in the middle of the night when she was ill so she didn't disrupt his sleep.

So when her friends point out that she and Dan don't have fireworks, Bea ignores them. Dan is the whole package. And yet Bea can't stop comparing him to her best friend Henry... Because Dan doesn't get Bea's jokes. Or like books. Or make her laugh until she can't breathe. Or become speechless when Bea puts on her favourite black dress for a night out...

As time goes on, Bea can't shift the feeling that something just isn't right. On paper Dan is the perfect man. But in reality... Will Bea be brave enough to ask for more from life - and get the fireworks she deserves?

A laugh-out-loud romantic comedy for fans of Giovanna Fletcher, Cate Woods, and Mhairi McFarlane.
