Love… From Both Sides

 

Sometimes, the hardest part of finding love is keeping a straight face…

 

For Jamie Newman, being a single guy isn’t proving to be much fun, especially when confronted with a sexually belligerent divorcee and a goddess so far out of his league she might as well be a different species.

Mind you, being a girl in search of love isn’t a bowl of cherries either. Just ask Laura McIntyre, who’s recently contended with a horny estate agent on a quest for light relief and a rabid mountain bike enthusiast with a penchant for displaying his genitals.

When Jamie and Laura bump into one another (quite literally) it looks like their luck may have changed – but sometimes finding the right person is only the start of your problems…

 

Based on real-life tales of dating disaster and relationship blunders, Love… From Both Sides is a warts-and-all romantic comedy for everyone who knows how tricky (and occasionally ridiculous) the quest for love can be.

Author’s Note

 

 

‘You should write a book about dating,’ my girlfriend said to me one evening, while I was putting the finishing touches to Life… On A High.

‘I can’t,’ I told her. ‘I’ve used all the funny stories I know about it in this book.’

‘You’re not the only one who’s had dating disasters, Spalding,’ she pointed out. ‘I’ve got some you could write about, and I’m sure your friends have too.’

 

Turns out she was right.

After several wine-soaked conversations with the variety of reprobates I call my friends, I had enough material for a new book.

More than enough, in fact.

It looks like finding the love of your life is filled with more pitfalls, pratfalls and problems than I’d imagined. From the stories I’ve heard over the past few months it’s frankly a miracle any relationships get off the ground at all…

 

Jamie and Laura aren’t real people, but the trials and tribulations they go through over the course of this story most certainly are.

 

This book is dedicated to everyone who’s gone through the hell of dating trying to keep a smile on their face. It’s also dedicated to the girl that made going through it all
completely
worthwhile for me.
