'Clever, fun and refreshing, with a string of unforgettable characters' - Helly Acton

Life at thirty-two is not at all what Marina Spicer had expected. And to top it off, she is absolutely tired of wasting time dating men who never seem to be a good match. Frustrated, she creates Dealbreakers, an anonymous app where women review how men stack up to their internet profiles. Her high standards have served her well at work, so why not in love?
Enter Lucas Kennedy. Marina's charming Irish co-worker and newest nemesis.
When the two are paired on a project to test out date ideas, ultimately determining which of them will be promoted, Marina takes a peek at Dealbreakers, hoping to dig up some dirt. But not only is Lucas the most annoying human on the planet, he also has the most dealbreakers listed on the app . . . ever.
As they argue their way through each 'date', Marina finds herself having more fun than she's had in years. And when their attraction becomes too strong to resist, Marina struggles not to break some of her own rules. After all, if the Dealbreakers say he's Mr. Wrong, he can't possibly be Mr. Right . . . can he?

Lauren Forsythe is a pain in the arse. By day, she's a content marketing manager, finding ways to get writing into people's eagerly waiting eye-holes, and by night...well it's the same thing, but with more wine. Lauren writes books about strong women, men with pretty eyelashes and friends that save your life.
When she's not writing, you can find her blogging about relationships, ranting about the patriarchy and ending her boxing workouts with a celebratory mini-roll or three. She firmly believes you can find confidence in the perfect bold lipstick and that all her problems would be solved if every dress had pockets.
Lauren lives in Hertfordshire with her husband and a rescue cat that gets more pampered by the day. She's currently growing a human and trying not to panic about it.
