A delightful rom-com about a woman who decides to revisit each of her seven exes, convinced that one of them is “the one who got away.”

Seven Exes. Seven Missed Chances. Who was the one who got away?

Esther is nearing thirty, with a great job and a flat she shares with her two best friends, Bibi and Louise. But her life is missing that special someone. Tired of being single and sick of bad date after bad date, she thinks she’s found the answer to her romance problem in an old women''s magazine.

According to the magazine’s dating column, there are seven archetypes a woman will date before finding Mr. Right. It all seems silly at first, until Esther realizes she has exactly seven exes that match the profiles: The First Love, The Work Mistake, The Overlap, The Friend with Benefits, The Missed Chance, The Bastard, and The Serious One. Is it so hard to believe that perhaps one of them is The One?

Deciding she must have left her true love in the reject pile, Esther contacts each of her old boyfriends. But finding her soulmate isn’t as simple as she hoped it would be. Madness, mayhem, laughs, and tears ensue as she valiantly works her way through her past love life and faces up to her previous mistakes. It’s an odyssey of the heart that will teach her a lot about herself. . . and just might lead her to the man of her dreams.

What do you get if you cross a dozen drunk hens with one shiny Butler in the Buff?

Meet Lilah Fox. She''s on the hen do from hell. Then she gets a message (44 of them, actually) from her best friend with big news: she''s getting married in six months. Oh, and Lilah''s her maid of honour. Which means she just got signed up for:

- A military schedule of wedding fairs and weekly planning meetings

- Excel spreadsheets and endless hen emails

- All the enforced, expensive fun you can imagine...

What fresh hell is this?

***Two friends. Two decades. One big mistake...

Nat and Zoe have always shared everything.

Hopeless crushes, emergency tampons, messy sex stories, work triumphs, those days where you can''t stop crying in the loos, those days where you can''t stop dancing on the bar. They even share the same birthday, FFS. The struggle is real, but they''ll always have each other.

Except best friends forever is a hard promise to keep...

Eye-wateringly hilarious, tender and true, this a story about growing up, falling apart, and the friendships that hold us together.

Första kärleken, jobbmisstaget, KK-relationen, reboundet, den missade chansen, idioten och den seriösa. Vännerna skrattar men Esther inser att hon alldeles för tydligt kan placera alla sina ex i varsin kategori. Hon bestämmer sig för att ta sig an uppdraget, trots att det innebär att hon måste träffa sina sju ex igen.
