Millie's Fling
Millie's quiet, single summer is about to get turned upside down…
When her dear friend and bestselling novelist Orla Hart invites Millie to spend the summer with her in Cornwall, Millie leaps at the chance to spend the summer alone, recovering from a bad breakup. But Orla has other ideas.
Envisioning Millie as the heroine of her next novel, Orla is determined that Millie should meet the man of her dreams this summer. The trouble is, Millie's taste in men doesn't match with Orla's at all.
Hugh Emerson, dashing young widower, is the one who really interests her. He is also the one man Orla insists she shouldn't get involved with.
With dropped wallets, rollerskating gorillagrams, the world's most flirtatious boss, and a helicopter in the back garden, It's sure to be an unforgettable summer…
A fresh and fun British women's fiction and a great romantic book with plenty of humor, friendship, and some madcap fun.
Fans of Meg Cabot, Sophie Kinsella, Helen Fielding and Jennifer Weiner will want to escape to Cornwall this summer to find their own romance.

7 Affairs Millie's Fling by Jill Mansell 4 stars★ This is definitely a British book. I like Jill Mansell. But she has numerous characters giving their points of view. Millie's Fling had A LOT of them. There's of course Millie and her romance and adventures. And then there's Hester, her roommate. And Hester's boyfriend, Nat. And bestselling romance author, Orla, whom made it her goal to get Millie hitched. And then there's sweet, lovable Hugh. And then even Lucas gets some time to have us readers hear him out. Oh and even moments with Millie's Mum, Adele.So let's see... that's 7 points of views. 7. With all these character point of views jumping all over the place, I didn't feel pulled to hearing each and every one of those characters. Sure some of them was necessary to the plot, but a lot didn't feel like that. And sometimes even took me out of liking the story, let alone these characters. And sometimes even got me confused as to who's point of view it was. I was going to give this 3 stars. But the ending was good. And I loved Hugh.
