There is an underlying sense of intelligence lining the backbone of this 'chick-lit'. Be it in the development of our protagonist from the very start; her permeating sense of "quiet unhappiness" shining as empty and vast as the starry sky she gazes at in her sleepless nights, or the way the characters around her are a symptom and cause of her own very situation; be it the superimposition of 'reality' vs. 'fictional expectations' within this specimem of fiction itself; the undeniable and yet inexplicable chemistry between our girl and Mr. Brown -- Barrett-Lee, has such a way of writing (did someone say wit?) that I cannot but give her a salute.
A good enough story about a woman who falls in love after a chance meeting with a handsome stranger who then turns out to work for the company taking over the one she works for. I liked the characters though the husband seems to take her for granted and is really quite rude to her while expecting her to run around after him. So he kind of deserves what happens in the end. I found the formatting on this kindle edition awful as it had underlined text through a lot of it which was quite distracting
