The One You Really Want

By Jill Mansell

Book Overview

"Mansell scores again with a multilayered contemporary story of loves lost and found...." --Publishers Weekly

A funny, heartfelt novel about second chances at love from international bestselling author Jill Mansell

When it comes to love, never say never

When Nancy discovers the expensive jewelry her husband's been buying isn't for her, she decamps from the Scottish countryside to her best friend Carmen's posh Chelsea town house to sort things out.

Nancy finds herself in a surprising new world, where rock stars are nicer than you thought, social workers are not necessarily to be trusted, and the filthy rich are folks with problems just like you. Everybody falls in love with the wrong people, and the path to true love twists and turns before you discover who you really want.

"Bursting with humor, brimming with intrigue, and full of characters you'll adore." --Heat on Don't Want to Miss a Thing

Customer Reviews

Light Summer Read

I have read all of Jill Mansell's books, and I have to say this is one of her better. Light, frothy, and surprisingly compulsive, this is a great summer read. The characters are all likeable, the plot isn't at all challenging, and the ends are all a bit too neatly tied, but if you're in the mood for a good piece of chick-lit that's not too taxing on your intellect, give this one a shot.

Jill Mansell does it again

Jill Mansell is one of my all-time favorite authors, however, I was a little disapointed by the predictability of her newest novel. It's still well-worth reading, but if you think that you know what's coming next, you probably do.
