'This delightful and witty book contains a meaningful message. A very satisfying read.' -- Katie Fforde 'This wonderfully light romantic comedy reads like a cross between Pride and Prejudice and The Devil Wears Prada - with a healthy hint of Ugly Betty's humour... Fast-paced, cinematic and indulgent, this is the ultimate Martini-fuelled beach read' -- Red 'Kim Izzo has written a humorous and engaging modern day love story. "Kate Shaw" is a romantic who will inspire a new generation, whether they're looking for love, or have already found it.' -- Nia Vardalos, screenwriter and actress, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 'Clever, engaging and entertaining, Kim Izzo's delightful novel is a must-read for Austen die-hards (which means all of us!) and a fun and funny take on modern marriage mores. Life begins at 40, don't forget it - Jane would agree!' -- Melissa de la Cruz, NYT bestselling author of Witches of East End 'A self-professed Jane Austen addict tries her hand at gold-digging in Izzo's charming debut novel, full of lavish parties, frothy escapist fantasy, and hilarious misadventures.' -- Publishers Weekly 'A highly comic read and a must-have for Austenites everywhere' -- Image 'Glamorous stuff!' **** -- Star 'A laugh-out-loud read with an enjoyable plot, Kate's kinship to Austen's heroines is sure to resonate with females of all ages' -- Candis 'Such a hoot... Gloriously funny' -- Saga 'A wonderful and entertaining debut, one that had me fascinated from the word go... a bitter-sweet and enchanting book.' -- www.handwrittengirl.com
