Publisher's summary

A fresh, hilarious and compulsively readable love story with the most wonderful kernel of truth to it. An uplifting and clever read for fans of Graeme Simsion and Marian Keyes.

Julia is looking for Mr Right, but Ben is more Mr Right-Now-He-Could-Do-With-a-Bath..

You may think you know what kind of novel this is, but you’d be wrong.

Yes, Julia is a single-girl cliché, living alone with her cat in Vienna and working in a language school. And yes, a series of disastrous dates has left her despairing of ever finding The One – until Ben sits next to her on a bench. He’s tall, dark, handsome…

…and also incredibly hairy, barefoot, a bit ripe-smelling and of no fixed abode.

You guessed it – they fall in love, as couples in novels do. But can Julia overlook the differences between them, abandon logic and choose with her heart?

Funny, filthy (literally) and fizzing with life – and based on a true story! – this is the perfect antidote to all those books promising you that Prince Charming lives in a castle.

Explicit sex and language

It was such a lovely story and I'd so hoped the book would reflect that but the narrator sounded sarcastic and its definitely not suitable for conservative listeners. Contains bad language and sex. I'm left disappointed.

Quirky delight

A light undemanding and entirely entertaining listen. Written with a fresh outlook and interesting style, very enjoyable.
The narration is great so one is just swept along, often amused, always engaged. Glad I bought this title.
