SEX AND THE EX

Will she get over him . . . or under him?


Hannah never expected to live with Charlie again.


Not after the divorce. She’s rebuilt her life; her fashion business is thriving and she’s finally in control. Until her mum dies and leaves her the most extraordinary bequest: the beautiful house Hannah grew up in . . . to be split between her and Charlie.

At first Charlie vows he will never live there. But when his life implodes, he decides he has no choice
but to claim what is rightly half his.

The rules of engagement are simple. Minimal contact. Doors stay shut. Food gets labelled. Communication via Post-its only. But Charlie has never been a stickler for rules, and he isn’t about to start now.

Living with your ex is hell. Falling for them again? That’s playing with fire.
