Daisy’s love life needs a makeover . . .Beauty therapist Daisy is having one of those days.
She’s just ended things with her boyfriend. Coming home to a huge ‘Sold’ sign planted in their front lawn and hearing him planning to move them into a caravan is the last straw.
To top it off, her greedy landlord, who also happens to be her ex’s best friend, is threatening to ruin her business.
So it’s no surprise a spelling mistake in the butcher’s window is enough to push her over the edge. And fixing it with a can of spray paint from a passing graffiti artist only makes things worse.
The graffiti artist is actually trainee doctor Jackson. Street art helps him to relax when he’s not at his stressful job.
Jackson doesn’t know what to make of the impulsive Daisy, but he can’t get her out of his head.
As Daisy fights to save her business, fate seems to delight in throwing her and Jackson together.
And boy do they make a good team . . . But can a passionate beauty therapist and a sensible doctor really have a future?
My Review
When a chance meeting for Daisy when she steals a spray can of paint from a stranger to correct a spelling (NB: I know how Anni feels when she reads my work.) becomes a story of two people falling in love.
Daisy a beauty therapist who is already under pressure from her landlord to move out of the building so he can turn it into flats. Nevermind the sold sign that’s just appeared outside the home she shares with her soon to be ex Mark.
Daisy’s salon is always busy and along with her two colleagues Molly and Sasha who provides many laugh out loud moments in this novel. They go out of their way when it comes to the customer experience even if Daisy is sometimes unaware of what they and her nephew Robbie are planning.
I like how Anni used the character Robbie to show that even though kids are sometimes screen obsessed. Robbie goes out of his way to help Daisy and not just play Roblox plus there’s that skate board he’s after. At times Daisy also comes across as a second mum to Robbie which I liked as it gave something else to the character dynamic.
Jackson is a trainee doctor and is top of his class, destined for great things, but there is something missing in his life. Until that is he meets Daisy. I liked how Anni made sure that Jackson came across as a real doctor and finds himself doing the things real trainee doctors do and it’s not just glossed over for the sake of the story.
Jackson has his vices of course, he’s a graffiti artist, but he doesn’t just tag places he really draws pictures which make people stop and look one such piece even goes to funding the local fire brigade.
Daisy and Jackson both have busy lives and though there several near misses, Robbie medalling in the proceedings and a dog called Elvis. I really enjoyed reading this book as it took me away from the genre that I’m used to. It was a NICE read and I can’t wait to read more of Anni’s work.
