Publisher's Synopsis
Professional pet-sitter Beth believes her Greek boyfriend, Alex is the one. So when he's offered a job in Dubai, he and Beth marry so they can move there together. But on the day they're due to fly to their new life, Alex says their marriage was a mistake and ends it. By phone. Beth is suddenly husbandless and homeless. Distraught, and with her life in turmoil, when her old boss asks a favour she agrees on autopilot, and goes to feed Talisker the cat, whose handsome but dour owner Henry travels one week in three. Finding herself in luxury surroundings, with nowhere to go and determined not to hear her mother's "I told you so", she sleeps on Henry's sofa. Next day, Beth has her job back and a plan. For the time being, she'll quietly stay in her clients' homes until she can convince Alex that this is all a big mistake. She's pretty sure squatting's against the law, but if she's careful, no one need find out ... until the mysterious Henry comes home unexpectedly.
