Funny, smart and fresh – Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A unique and very different take on the traditional RomCom . . . I adored Fliss and her relationship with Ash – Reader review ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

*

What if The One isn’t the only one?

After nine years of dating, Holly is sure Will is going to propose. Instead, he shocks her by suggesting they open their relationship and date other people.

For the last three years, Fliss and Ash have been in a happily open relationship. But now they’re turning thirty, he wants to close it, casting Fliss’s whole approach to life into doubt.

When Fliss overhears Holly crying in the toilet during her first date in nine years, they agree to teach each other everything they know about open relationships and monogamy.

But perhaps they’ll both learn that there’s no one size fits all when it comes to relationships …

*

About the Author

Chloe Seager grew up in London with her Mum and much-loved cat, Katie. She studied English Lit & Drama at university, where she sadly realised she couldn't act, but did rediscover her love of children's books. Children's Lit was one of her favourite modules and made her wonder why grown-ups ever stopped reading it. She now works as a YA/Children's literary agent.
