An addictive friends to lovers rom-com with dual POV, perfect for fans of Beth O'Leary and Lucy Vine!

Stella’s life is not going to plan. Suddenly she’s in her early thirties with a young baby, zero dating experience and a house that’s falling apart, but she’s determined not to give up on herself or finding the perfect relationship.

To navigate the murky world of online dating, Stella hatches a plan to date different ‘types’. There’s the Gentleman for elegant dinner dates. The Poet for deep conversation. And the No Strings Attached Guy for... uncomplicated fun.

Dom doesn’t quite fall into any of the categories, so ends up as The Friend instead, spending time with Stella and her daughter whenever they can. Then Stella meets her perfect match. Things are finally all coming together.

But when did love ever follow the rules?
