‘Leaves you more in love with life.’ Camilla Isley, bestselling rom-com author of This is Not a Holiday Romance
‘Funny, uplifting and full of Christmas charm.’ Reader review
This holiday season, love is going off-script.
Celebrated advice columnist ‘Dear Dotty’ Ellison has made a name for herself by solving everyone else’s problems.
But she derails her seemingly perfect life when she unknowingly advises her girlfriend of ten years to break up with her. Through her own advice column.
Suddenly single, Dotty realises her life behind the picture-perfect brand isn’t as flawless as she thought. Determined to rediscover who she really is, she decides it’s time to learn how to take her own advice. She begins writing letters to herself through her column.
But when Dotty meets a gorgeous stranger at a cooking class, everything she thought she’d learned through her journey of self-discovery is thrown into question.
Now, with Christmas approaching, will Dotty discover that love and life aren’t something you can write, edit or schedule?
Funny, feel-good and painfully relatable, this is a romantic comedy for anyone who’s ever felt like the expert of anything except their own life. Perfect for fans of Claire Lydon, Clare Ashton, Beth O’Leary, Camilla Isley, Alison Cochrun or Mhairi McFarlane.
Readers have fallen head over heels for Charlotte Barnes:
‘A witty, heartfelt rom-com that puts a fresh spin on the holiday romance trope.’
‘This book burst into my life, brightened it, lightened it and made me feel so much better . . . A funny, gorgeous balm to the soul.’

‘The perfect romcom.’
‘Uplifting, heartfelt and laugh-out-loud funny.’
‘Barnes blends humour, emotion and seasonal charm.’
‘Synced perfectly with my sense of humour.’
‘Advertised as hilarious and heartwarming. And let me tell you, it absolutely lived up to that! I absolutely devoured this book in one sitting and I did not want to put it down.’
