In order to keep her mum from harrassing her, Sophy invents a boyfriend and now must produce him for her sister's wedding. It sounds like a great premise but the British colloquialism make the dialogue almost incomprehensible. Sophy's hires a rent-a-stud to play her boyfriend and spends the first 50 pages or so in a panic that he won't be able to play the part. She's so bitchy to him that I can't believe he didn't give up. After the wedding, she calms down and the romance starts and the book gets much better. I only picked this book up because I needed a "Y" author otherwise I would have stopped reading this within the first 50 pages. Definitely not an author I would read again.
