Almost a Bride

A Wattpad smash-hit newly revised and expanded. Escape to the exotic island of Mauritius in this flirty, funny, riot of a rom-com. Fall in love, cry with laughter, and have a whale of a time.

Newly single. Holiday of a lifetime. Bumping into 'the ex'. This runaway Wattpad sensation brings you laughter, disaster, and a love story to give you the warm-and-fuzzies. Perfect for fans of Lindsey Kelk, Holly Martin, Tracy Bloom and Sophie Kinsella.

That moment you catch your boyfriend in bed with another woman and then mistakenly get arrested. #awks

Annie doesn't want to dwell on the fact that she walked in on her bf wearing nipple clamps on the day he was meant to propose to her. She just wants to move on - cue escaping to a tropical paradise.

Life is dreamy on the beaches of Mauritius, until the nightmarish appearance of her ex and the 'other woman'. Faced with the enemy, Annie refuses to look like the sad, lonely single she actually is. She needs a decoy - and fast. Enter Chris, a sexy screenwriter who agrees to play her pretend boyfriend.

But as a battle of the exes commences, the white sand, tropical heat and a pina colada (or five) might just be the cocktail for a real romance - and the adventure of a lifetime.

For more laugh-out-loud, swoon-worthy hijinks, look out for Jo's next unmissable rom-com, Finding You. And don't miss her hilarious debut novel, Burning Moon.
