Within days of wishing she could change her life, Fran Cooper is acting assistant to a celebrity, on a yacht in the Mediterranean, and en route to a tiny Italian island and the glittering Crystal Ball, along with the world’s rich and famous.

When she – quite literally – bumps into a handsome American called Evan, a man able to keep his cool in the face of chaos, the magic really begins.

Evan makes her a promise: no last names, no life stories, just one unforgettable night. Yet Evan belongs at the Crystal Ball and Fran is a gatecrasher. They may be soulmates, but their homes are an ocean apart, and their lives a world apart. They’ll never meet again – unless, on a night like this, everything can change forever...

Ratings and reviews

Francesca takes on a temporary personal assistant job for a top secret client, even though it means five days away from her clingy boyfriend. The client turns out to be a pop diva on her way to a charity ball, where's she's scheduled to perform. When Fran sneaks into the ball, she meets up with a tall, dark, and handsome stranger. She's forced to confront some hard truths about her life—and how she prioritizes everyone else's happiness over her own. Can she find the courage to choose the life she wants for herself? I absolutely adore Francesca. She's sweet and self-deprecating and loyal to a fault. She gets into some scrapes but it's all in good fun. Rom com and chick lit fans will love this book. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.

I've always wanted to read a Lindsey Kelk novel and I am so glad this was my first! This novel is everything I love in a book. A beautiful love story mixed in with a true lesson on self love, this is a perfect novel for anyone whos looking for a perfect novel to escape into. I devoured in one sitting. Fran is a freelance executive assistant with a lately distant fiancee named Stew. After moving to the suburbs, they agreed they would no longer take jobs in London. But after one comes up for Fran that's too good to pass up, she quickly finds herself onboard a luxury yacht headed toward the island of Panarea newly employed as the personal assistant of singer Juliette headed to the ultra luxurious Crystal Ball. Considering her longest lasting assistant lasted just a few months, Fran has her work cut out for her. After a series of impossible circumstances, Fran ends up in a sparkly couture gown in the midst of the Crystal Ball. Sans date, she !sets Evan and they quickly establish ground rules. No last names. No personal info. Just a fun night as friends. But when Evan makes her question everything about herself and her life, Fran will never be the same. With equal parts heart and hilarity, this is truly one of my favorite novels of the year. Kelk writes such stunning descriptions of everything you feel like you're right in the story! Her ability to capture human emotions with a sense of humor is the icing on the cake. Five out of five stars! Thank you to Lindsey Kelk, Harper Collins UK, and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

This book was so much fun to read and so hilarious. LOL hilarious. Fran goes to work as a personal assistant for a celebrity singer. She meets Evan at a ball. He is perfect for her. She doesn’t want to turn out like her mom. He doesn’t want to turn out like his father. It’s a perfect rom-com. Funny and charming and bright. Read it. You won’t be disappointed.
