Her friends are bossing life - is she in danger of being left behind?

27-year-old Cleo is happy enough. She likes her job in the fish and chip shop in the small town where she grew up. But her world has become very small - all her friends couldnt wait to leave their small, seaside town and are off, apparently crushing life. They have shiny careers and creative side-hustles, while she is still living with her mum and dad.

But when she learns that her childhood boyfriend is coming back to town for a party in three months, she decides she needs to start adulting.

But what does being a grown-up really mean? And can she become one in three months?

A funny, life-affirming romcom perfect for fans of Emily Henry, Beth O'Leary and Mhairi McFarlane

Joyce creates characters that you'll love dearly and want to have a pint with, and of course horrible ones that would make you pull your hair out in anger if they were part of your life. *_They feel real, and everything feels heartfelt and genuine *_as their lives unfold before you. Reader Review

Tons of laughs, fantastic characters, surprises, and plenty of heart. Reader Review
