Lucy Blue lost herself in her relationship with an overbearing boyfriend. Although Teddy was just a summer romance, she postpones breaking up with him until the Christmas holidays and he doesn't take the news well. Lucy tries to escape for awhile, but the New Year's party she crashes in Scotland is a bust and she wants to go home to London. Her plans change when a snowstorm grounds her plane and she finds herself sharing her rental car with an attractive man on the long drive back to the city. Despite her desperation, Lucy Blue isn't the kind of girl who shags a stranger at a roadside motel on New Year's Day. Or is she?

Back in the real world, Lucy is soon enough focusing on her work and fending off Teddy's pathetic attempts to win her back. Although Lucy and the brooding stranger both agreed this was a one-time rendezvous, Lucy is jolted out of her daily grind by large green posters taped all over the tube station asking, "LUCY BLUE, WHERE ARE YOU?" Convinced that this is a grand romantic gesture, Lucy dials the phone number listed on the poster, not knowing that her adventure is only just beginning.

This post-holiday romance is the perfect cure for the winter blues. Louise Harwood gives us a believably conflicted heroine and just enough family secrets to keep things interesting. Witty banter and British slang keep this fast read flirty and fun. Finding yourself has never been so sexy!
