Imagine being able to see into the future and tell exactly
what's going to happen. For everyone, but yourself.
That is Cassandra's predicament. She has a wonderful
psychic gift that she has worked into a nice job at a
tabloid newspaper, answering people's questions, mostly
about their love lives. But she can't see diddly about her
own romantic intentions. And for the most part, she is
satisfied with that. She enjoys her job, for the most part,
and she has great friends, Charlene and Jo, who have been
her buddies since childhood.
But Cassandra's life is turned topsy-turvy when Charlene
manages to snag her a spot on a local morning TV show,
being produced by Charlene's new love interest, Jack. Only
one problem. Whenever Cassandra comes around Jack, she
loses all her abilities to see anything in the future.
Except for one tiny speck of Jack being happy with...not
Charlene, but with Cassandra herself!
Torn between wanting to remain loyal to her friend, or to
pursue a chance at love, Cassandra shoots through so many
ups and downs, ins and outs trying avoid conflict that she
manages to find it at every turn. Sometimes having a gift
isn't a gift at all!
In her new book, I NEVER FANCIED HIM ANYWAY, Irish author
Claudia Carroll delivers a hysterically funny story that
will keep her readers in stitches. Think of an
Irish "Bridget Jones" with psychic abilities and a lot more
brain power, and you have Carroll's main character,
Cassandra. I found this book a delight to read, and upon
reading that it's been optioned for a movie, I look forward
to seeing the story played out on the big screen.
Cassandra can see the future with 100% accuracy . . .
for everybody except herself.
Ever since Cassandra
was a little girl, she's had a remarkable psychic gift. Now
a successful columnist for a weekly magazine, she predicts
the future with uncanny precision. And thanks to her
stunning co-worker Charlene—and the latest love of
Charlene's life, hot television producer Jack—Cassandra's
moving up . . . to daytime TV!
The trouble is,
whenever Jack's around, the hapless seer's second sight goes
dim—something that always seems to happen when a desirable
single male is around. But despite a truly abysmal dating
record, she believes Jack is the one for her . . . though
Charlene might strongly disagree. Is true love or outrageous
catastrophe right around the corner? Cassandra doesn't have
a clue. But it seems even being able to foretell the future
can't protect her from what destiny has in store . . . and
sometimes fate won't allow you to look before you love.
Delightfully warm, odd, and unforgettable, Claudia
Carroll's I Never Fancied Him Anyway is a quirky and
hilarious story of seeing . . . and believing.
