Good For You: A relatable, funny rage romance from the bestselling author of Book Boyfriend!
'Lucy Vine's writing is so warm and funny – her books are the literary equivalent of an amazing girls' night out' BETH O'LEARY
Sometimes the people who give the best advice are the worst at taking it.
Liv's furious – but you'd never know. Morning telly's favourite relationship therapist has to stay cheery and composed. She's worked hard to build a non-nonsense, easy-breezy reputation.
But when she's caught on video having a meltdown over tiramisu after her long-term boyfriend fails to propose, Liv goes viral for all the wrong reasons. Suddenly everyone knows the woman whose mantra is 'keep calm and carry a condom' can't keep her cool.
Her boss gives her an anger management or unemployment. It should be easy enough. Except her therapist, Edward, is insufferable. Understanding, infuriatingly perceptive, and, worse, devastatingly attractive. Six sessions stand between Liv and returning to the life she’d built . . . she only has to resist Edward’s annoyingly hot, knowing stare.
Praise for Lucy Vine

Light read, flat story , oblivious main character, v predictable, but lovely therapy talk and cute little moments. Nice break book.
