Headline Review

The romantic tale of a career girl, a handsome stranger and chips

Pippa Jones is 20-something and single. She likes chips, country music and her cat. She also loves her career as number one sales rep for a computer firm. The only thing she hasn’t got time for is men. Broken-hearted last time round, Pippa is sticking to girlfriends – and winning a dream trip to New York.

However, life isn’t that simple. A rival firm is stealing her clients, and a tall, fair stranger is following her everywhere. He’s in the bar, at dinner, even at her meetings. Is he a stalker? Whoever he is, he’s about to turn Pippa’s world upside down
