Lisa Doyle is fine. Absolutely fine. Her best friend is getting married, everyone else is settled, and Lisa is very much not. She doesn't need a man. She just needs people to stop looking at her like that. So, four glasses into a bottle of wine, Lisa announces her own engagement. To a man called Brian. A man who doesn't exist. Unfortunately, Brian also happens to share a name with her very married boss. Now Lisa needs a fiancé for the wedding. Her actor flatmate is offering to help. And the real Brian is starting to look at her in ways that suggest this might all have been a terrible idea. Lisa's father left her two things: a battered blue armchair, and a talent for making bad situations worse. She's about to use both. The Armchair Bride is a warm, witty romantic comedy about love, lies, and knowing when to stop digging. Perfect for readers who enjoy Beth O'Leary, Mhairi McFarlane and Marian Keyes.
