Seeking comfort - and a laugh - she turns to the dating advice only to find an article that feels a little too close to home. According to the journalist, there are seven people a woman will date before finding the one:The First Love, The Work Mistake, The Friend with Benefits, The Overlap, The Missed Chance, The Bastard and The Serious One.Her friends laugh but Esther realises each of her exes fits these roles perfectly. Deciding that she's mistaken her true love in the reject pile she decides to contact each of her exes to find out which is the one that got away...___________________________________________________________________'SEVEN EXES made me laugh out loud. It's fresh, fast-paced and joyous. Lucy Vine's writing is so warm and funny - her books are the literary equivalent of an amazing girls' night out.' Beth O'Leary'Clever, perceptive and screamingly funny, Seven Exes is a joyous commentary on the mores and mysteries of modern dating and how past loves can shape our future. Throw in some delicious nostalgia, some genuinely sexy love interests and Vine's mastery of female friendships in all their frank and messy glory, and it's a book you'll never, ever want to break up with.' Lauren Bravo'Funny, hopeful and agonisingly relatable, Esther is all of us. Lucy Vince writes with such compelling honesty, Seven Exes made me laugh, made me cry and made me want to call all my friends to tell them I loved them then call my exes to apologize/punch them in the nuts. Equal parts romcom and life lesson, it's a must-read.' Lindsey Kelk'One of the freshest, funniest rom-coms I've ever read... with so much heart and depth' Daisy Buchanan'Seven Exes is a bit of me! A shimmering rom-com with plenty of gorgeous romance and even more achingly funny comedy. I loved the nostalgia, I loved the tenderness and I absolutely adored the friendship between Esther and her best pals. This is a joyous must-read.' Hannah Doyle, author of The A to Z of Us
