About the book:

So, I Met This Guy...

Well, isn't that how every love story starts? But how does it end – a happily ever after? Or with the discovery that the supposed love-of-your-life has stolen your life savings and your home, trashed your heart and demolished your self-esteem?

Maggie is barely fifty years-old, and she's not one to give up on herself. So when she meets Flick, a young reporter who realizes this story could be the big break she's been looking for, they set off to catch him as he goes on the run across Europe. After all, she's got nothing left to lose, right?

But as the pair embark on the road trip of their lives, unexpected twists, hidden secrets and hard truths are revealed. And as an unlikely friendship begins to blossom, they realize it's not just about finding the guy, it's about finding themselves...

From the author of the mega bestseller Confessions of a Forty-Something F##k Up comes another laugh-out-loud novel full of wit, wisdom... and women who have had ENOUGH.
