The Sweet Second Life of Darrell KincaidBook 1 in the Imperfect Lives series #1 New Zealand best-seller! "Absolutely brilliant." "It's hard to see how the book could have been any more assured or engaging.""Lots of very good jokes." Cast adrift after the unexpected death of her husband, romance novelist Darrell Kincaid decides to leave behind her old life and start another as far away as possible, free from constant reminders of her lost 'happy ever after'.
She lands in London, and to stave off loneliness becomes a regular at her local Italian café, along with three others who Darrell secretly nicknames. There's intimidating, private Big Man, New Age Miss Flaky, and the handsome, posh, uptight Mr Perfect. Darrell is also thrown into the company of the Romani family of her landlord, property mogul Patrick King, in particular, his cousin, Anselo, who is renovating Darrell's rented house.
But it's when she meets Mr Perfect's equally handsome and un-uptight brother, Marcus, that Darrell's second-chance life becomes very complicated indeed.(374 pages approx)
