       Falling for the man of her dreams…

      Ruby Wood is perfectly happy playing the dating game – until she has a red-hot dream about her very attractive flatmate, Nick. He might spend every day saving lives as a junior doctor, but he’s absolutely the last man on earth that fun-loving Ruby would ever date!

      The solution? Focus on all of Nick’s bad points. And if that fails, up her dating antics and find herself a man! So what if she manages to make disapproving, goody two-shoes Nick jealous in the process…

      Only, after a series of nightmare first dates, there’s still just one man on Ruby’s mind. Maybe it’s time to admit the truth and dare to ask Nick to be her next date?

       PORTIA MACINTOSH

      has been ‘making stuff up’ for as long as she can remember – or so she says. Whether it was blaming her siblings for that broken vase when she was growing up, blagging her way backstage during her rock chick phase or, most recently, whatever justification she can fabricate to explain away those lunchtime cocktails, Portia just loves telling tales. After years working as a music journalist, Portia decided it was time to use her powers for good and started writing novels. Taking inspiration from her experiences on tour with bands, the real struggle of dating in your twenties and just trying to survive as an adult human female generally, Portia writes about what it’s really like for women who don’t find this life stuff as easy as it seems.

      I’d like to say a super-massive thank you to my fabulous editor, Charlotte, for all of her support and hard work, and thank you to Victoria, Clio, Rhea and all of the other people behind the scenes at HQ Digital who take what I write and package it up in a way that makes it a thousand times better. From your solid guidance to the incredible covers you create for me, I couldn’t imagine doing this with anyone else.

      Writing under a pen name is tricky, it means that I have a very small group of people around me giving me support, but I get so much, I may as well have an army behind me. Thank you to my fellow HQ Digital authors for always holding my hand, thank you to all of the wonderful book bloggers who kindly spread the word about my books and the biggest thank you ever to my readers for their continued support. To be about to publish my fifth book is unreal, but to have people actually read and enjoy them is just beyond my wildest dreams.

      Thank you to my rockstar, for always having my back no matter what. Thank you to A for being a wonderful lady. Thank you to my siblings for everything they do for me, for always keeping me in stitches and synonyms – depending on which one I needed at that particular moment in time. Thank you to my parents for always standing by me – especially my incredible mum who, despite having so much to contend with, has endless time and support for me. I would not be doing this without her.

      Thank you to Handsome Face, my ambassador/admiral, for taking care of me and helping me out more than he’ll ever realise.

      The biggest shout-out of all has to go to every bad date I have ever been on – I cannot believe I shaved my legs for you, but thanks for all the inspiration.

      For Handsome Face
