Air hostess Annie’s life takes a serious nosedive after her boyfriend dumps her (by text) and takes off with a thousand pounds of her money.

accidentally engaged 
by Mary Carter

Psychic Clair Ivars has a flair for reading tarot cards, yet a total blind spot when it comes to predicting her own future – especially matters of the heart (see previous three failed marriages). Which might explain why she’s surprised to find herself accidentally engaged to vodka magnate Jack heron after knowing him for only a few hours.

What it doesn’t explain, however, is an increasingly strange series of events, from the car that off-roads of its own accord, the appearance of Jack’s fairy-tale castle hidden in the woods, the things that keep going bump in the night – and Clair’s potential mother-in-law, who’s hiding one hell of a family secret. And it definitely doesn’t explain the peculiar way Clair keeps thinking about Jack’s business partner – the tall, dark, mysterious and infuriatingly sexy Mike…

Get ready for quirky romantic comedy at its very best – and a romantic road trip you’ll never forget.
