Ruby-Jane Ryan is a hardworking freelance journalist in Christchurch, New Zealand, who is widely traveled in her profession. She has friends who are prone to gossip, and though Ruby-Jane is fond of them, they also annoy the heck out of her. One of them is constantly trying to woo her into ascending new heights with him, preferably in his spa pool. Another stretches their friendship with his complaints as well as his problems with various unsuitable women he finds online. She finally gets moral support and love from a gorgeous Irish occupational therapist she meets during the course of her work. Ruby-Jane's additional work as an advice columnist written by "Agony Aunt" is kept secret from her gossipy friends. It's through her column that she's able to exact a form of revenge on her persistently annoying pals. After all, why should she take advice when she's the one dishing it out?

"I spent many years as a freelance journalist and editor, and thought that a novel about a young feisty journalist and her many experiences would be fun to write."
