Ten years later, though, when Lola meets Dougie again, her feelings for him are as strong as ever. But she broke Dougie's heart - and he's about to discover that she was paid to do it. Lola's very attractive and very persuasive - but she's got her work cut out if she wants to win him back.

"I read a few reviews where it stated that this book is predictable, but I could not understand what the problem was supposed to be with predictability. It is the journey you have to follow towards that end which makes it wonderful. I loved the journey this book took me on, and even though I knew the outcome, I could not help wishing throughout that it will indeed happen. I laughed myself silly a few times. I really liked this story." — Lynette (4 out of 5 stars)

" light novel for a relaxed reading "
" Cute, light read. Got kind of repetitive in the middle but it was good. "
" Good book, just not my favorite. I would have liked if Doug's character expressed more during the book. The author developed every other character I feel except him. Other than that I enjoyed it. Nice easy read if your looking for something. "
" I really like Jill Mansell's characters and the way she writes. It's fresh and exciting but this is the third or fourth book I've read of hers and the formula is starting to get tired. I pretty much can sum up all the characters endings by the second chapter. And this ending was pretty bland for her... disappointed. "
" I have no self restraint at all when it comes to these books. This is A Fact. "
" Another really easy read, I'm still amazed by this as it's so different from my usual fantasy/sci-fi, I think the way characters are introduced and written make it really easy empathise with them. I not sure about the actual story seems to fall flat at the end but It was a bit of light relief after Lord of the flies! "
" This book almost made me late for work as I ended up reading til midnight then sleeping in the next morning! I couldn't put this book down as I wanted to know what happened next with all the characters. Highly enjoyable read will definitely look out for more books by this author "
" I guess I liked the concept and the ending, and some of it was funny, but for the most part I had a hard time following. The book jumped characters and time so fast with no warning that is was a little exhausting trying to keep up. "
" I thought "Two's Company" was my the least my favorite book by Jill Mansell! No, "An Offer You Can't Refuse" is now the least favorite book by Jill Mansell. "
" i read this book on my last holiday lying by the pool almost cover to cover in one sitting absolutely brill "
" Not my favorite of Mansell's books, but I thought it was still a fun, light read. "
" This was a bit different than the rest, while, of course, being exactly the same. Enjoyable way to start the new year, but now off to do some real reading. And to use my brain for something more than fluff. "
" At the beginning, this book did not really interest me at all. It kinda got better towards the end though.. "
" I kept reading and reading this book because I wanted to find out what was going to happen next. The main characters are very lovable and the side characters are really well developed too which makes you feel like you know them. Very enjoyable! "
" Entertaining and had it's moments, but there were other Mansell books I loved a lot more. Mostly, I just wanted this book to be more developed... "
" Ive actually already read this book and this was the second time Ive read this book, I didnt realise it until I was into the story by a couple of chapters, its a pleasant book to read. "
" Okay, I must just say that Dougie is the worst name ever for a romantic hero! I almost couldn't read it! Now that I've gotten that off my chest, this was a fun book, with a cute supporting cast. Best use of bunny costume in a novel! "
" Pretty good holiday read... couldn't put in down... I liked the characters too much!! "
" I just couldn't bring myself to finish this one... The plot is just flat and totally predictable. "
" I loved this. Jill Mansell is hilariously funny and so sweet at other times. I was rooting for the characters (all of them) throughout the entire book. I loved it, and probably all of Jill's other books, too! "
" It's chicklit, and I can't quite believe I liked it as much as I did because really? A woman who is bought out of a relationship as the heroine of a story? But I did. It's a really quick and fun read. So if you're looking for a beach book... "
" A funny book with a lo of twists and turns. "
" Well, I liked it, granted it was not her best but it was certainly not her worst either. These books are my feel-good stories, funny and light and always with a good ending but so very cleverly written. "
" I enjoyed this book, but I wish there had been a bit more romance. I was happy for her in the end, but felt left out. "
" A funny, touching story with great characters and hilarious dialogues. A wonderful chick book. "
" A light fun beach book read! Simply mind candy and it fit my mood perfectly "
" a very enjoyable light read; needed sometimes! :) "
" Light hearted and laugh-out-loud funny... "
" This has to rank up there with my all-time favorite books. It had me laughing out loud! I loved it! "
" cute characters- but why oh why are her females always so "hung up" on something? "
" Could not put it down! I got sucked in and could not stop reading until I finished it. "
" This book is entertaining, but not really gripping... "
" I closed this book feeling satisfied. The characters are entertaining and the ending was happy. I want nothing else. "
" Decent read but rip off of Bridget Jonses's Diary and Notting Hill. "
