Book Cover & Preview Text
So the lawyer was gone. And who cares? I was a big girl; I could handle it. He was a boring git anyway, and if he hadn’t have gone off with his secretary at this point then he would have done whilst I was giving birth to his third child. So I considered myself as being quite fortunate actually. I now had a whole world of men to choose from as a singleton again.
Great, there’s that word again; ‘singleton’. I swear that each syllable sends chilling shivers up my backside, reminding me that I have to start the whole miserable ‘dating’ process all over again, and causing levels of distress that can only be cured by chocolate indulgence. I now had to endure countless e-mails from men who were either seeking a shag, a shag on the side, or a shag that was accompanied by a convenient passport. I had to try to sift through the spelling errors, bad grammar and ‘copy and paste’ jobs to find someone who was bothered to write more than a single exclusive sentence about themselves. Someone who had a half-decent, non-airbrushed photo which preferably didn’t exhibit any bare-chested poses or a convertible Renault Megane in the background. I now had to try to find somebody whose profile text didn’t start with ‘Not really sure what to write here’ or whose most exciting comment was not as pathetic and common as ‘I like to cuddle up on the sofa with a bottle of wine and a DVD’.
Just as I was feeling lower than low I received an e-mail from Elliot. Perfect timing!

Of course, if you would like to stay in touch, I would love to…?

And for what purpose? Perhaps he required me for informal shags whilst his secretary was getting her nails done. And why did he suddenly feel the need to use the word ‘love’?
Formats Book Details They say that a good man is hard to find. But in Claire’s experience, this is somewhat of an understatement. Surely the word ‘impossible’ should make an appearance somewhere within this phrase? In no particular order, the men Claire met included liars, cheaters, stalkers and well, tossers, to be blunt. So when a friend suggested online dating Claire figured that she hadn’t exactly got much to lose. And so began Claire’s hilarious, bizarre and unthinkable experiences of the internet dating world, as she embarked on a journey laced with yet more disastrous dates. And still, Mr Right failed to show up. That was until the grand appearance of Robin, who swept Claire off her feet the moment she laid eyes on him. Finally, she had met the man of her dreams. But little did she know that before Robin met her he launched a National media campaign to find the lady of his dreams, prompting attention from women all over the world. Would this turn into yet another disaster for Claire?
