The Summer Job

A hilarious story about a lie that gets out of hand – soon to be a TV series

Birdy Finch just got her dream job. The trouble is, it's not hers . . .

It was a simple accident. Well, maybe a tiny fib. OK, maybe an all-out, blatant, mayhem-causing lie. Because the life she's just claimed is hers actually belongs to her best friend, Heather.

Obviously she'll tell Heather (eventually). And the first guy she's properly liked in forever (probably). Absolutely nobody will know - just till she sorts herself out . . .

So can Birdy carry off a summer at a luxury Scottish hotel pretending to be a world-class wine expert? And can she find the courage to fall in love, even if it means telling the truth?
Engaging, heartwarming and SO MUCH FUN. I bloody loved it
