Lovers all around
Readers will find a charming romp in Jill Mansell’s Millie’s Fling. Millie Brady may be man-less and jobless in Cornwall, but that doesn’t mean her life isn’t worth writing about—as she discovers when best-selling author Orla Hart decides to make 25-year-old Millie the star of her next novel. Millie tells her friend Orla about her adventures in delivering kissograms (dressed as a gorilla), the dates that don’t go right and also the alwaysgood- for-a-laugh escapades of her friends and family. But she keeps the passion she feels for the recently widowed Hugh Emerson—a man who keeps turning up in Millie’s path—to herself. Love, it seems, is on everyone’s mind and the fun of the story is seeing the many characters’ missteps in its pursuit. Will all find their soulmates? Mansell’s dry humor and engaging story make it an undeniable pleasure to find out.
