Preorder Mhairi's new novel COVER STORY – coming soon!

Mad about You is a story about two strangers, one big coincidence, and the beginning of driving each other crazy.

Harriet Hatley is running away from everything:

  • Getting married.
  • Her boyfriend’s family.
  • Her past.

A dream house-share seems like the perfect place to hide, but her unlikely housemate, Cal, is no stranger to running away himself. And he's also hiding secrets of his own...

Can these two take a crazy risk, face the past, and finally find a reason to stay?
