Dolly All the Time

Bloomsbury presents Dolly All the Time by Annabel Monahgan, read by Julia Whelan
'Beautiful, sexy, and escapist, DOLLY ALL THE TIME is my new favourite Annabel Monaghan book. I adored it!' - Beth O'Leary, bestselling author of The Flatshare A hardworking single mom returns to her seaside hometown and stumbles into a fake dating situationship with a wealthy, workaholic scion, from the New York Times bestselling author of It's a Love Story If they begin by pretending, can they end with something real?
Dolly Brick is a woman you can rely on. She's never met a problem she couldn't solve. Not when her mom left when she was ten, and not at thirty-nine when she returns to her hometown of Whitfield, Rhode Island to help her dad and brother from losing the family home.
So when she sees Stewart Whitfield - annoyingly handsome scion of the Whitfield family - with a flat tire and at the wrong end of a very public, very humiliating breakup, it's in her nature to help. But what Stewart asks of Dolly ends up being more than either of them bargained for. As public dinners and high society benefits turn into sunset boat rides and kisses that give her butterflies, Dolly starts to feel something more than helpful. She's never relied on anyone besides herself, can she really start now?
