( ) Most real people don't go through elaborate subterfuges like the one in this British chick lit book: Sophy made up a boyfriend Dominic to keep her parents from nagging, but OOPS, she'll need to produce him for her sister's wedding. So she hires Josh and hilarity ensues. Pleasant enough, but it never really rings true. 'It was only a little white lie--but you should never tell little white lies to your mother. As Sophy is about to discover. Sophy's single, and happy about it. She does, however, have an imaginary boyfriend - Dominic - whose sole purpose is to keep Sophy's mother off her back. Which is fine, until Dominic's presence is demanded at a family wedding. What should Sophy do? Admit he was a fantasy? Pretend they broke up? Invent a sudden but tragic death? Oh no. Sophy hires an escort. But when the distinctly delicious Josh Carmichael arrives on her doorstep ready to step into Dominic's expensively tailored shoes, Sophy can tell things are going to get tricky. And the wedding is only the beginning. ' no reviews | add a review
