A quirky new romcom filled with magic, heart and the absurdities of the sapphic dating scene. Hope has nothing going for her. She's in a job she hates, she's been forced to quit her band after losing the ability to play guitar and, to make matters worse, her ex - the love of her life, Julia - is now getting married to her best friend's ex (messy, right?). But there's one silver lining: Hope has been invited to play at their wedding... and she's going to get Julia back.
However, the road to true love is never easy, and Hope's journey is blocked by tarot readers, hen parties, visions from the past and, worst of all, Ruby. With their big eyes and extremely kissable mouth, Ruby is new to London's convoluted queer scene and a much-needed breath of fresh air for Hope.
Will Hope win back the woman she loves, or does the universe have something else in store? Perfect for fans of Looking for a Sign by Susie Dumond, Funny Story by Emily Henry and The Seven Year Slip by Ashley Poston, with notes of Really Good, Actually by Monica Heisey.
