A tender, funny coming-of-age story about the chaos of first love, second chances and three-point-turn from the bestselling author of The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets.

Nicolette is the school agony aunt and relationship expert. Her unique skill – deciphering handwriting – allows her to interpret every love letter, and she has saved many a friend from disastrous romantic entanglements. It doesn’t matter that she’s never been in love – you can tell a lot from the way someone writes their 7s and usually it’s a red flag.

But when she meets Frank, she can’t work him out him at all. He’s shambolically dressed, half French – and leaving for America once he passes his driving test.

When they are both forced to come to the aid of friend, in Frank’s crumbling family home deep in the snowy English countryside, it’s the perfect opportunity to read him once and for all. But his eccentric sister, glamorous grandmother and a newborn baby are all in tow – and the snow isn’t clearing anytime soon.
