Publisher's Synopsis
When the bookshop where she works is about to close, Laura Horsley recklessly agrees to help organise a literary festival. But her initial excitement turns to a sense of panic at the enormity of the work involved - especially when the festival committee mistakenly believes that Laura is a personal friend of the author at the top of their wish list. Laura might have secretly been infatuated with Dermot Flynn, but to travel to Ireland and persuade the notorious recluse to come out of hiding...? Determined to rise to the challenge, she sets off to meet her literary hero. But Dermot, maddening, temperamental and up to his ears in writer's block, is also infuriatingly attractive - and, apparently, out to add Laura to his list of conquests.
