A short story from the author of Cupcakes at Carrington's — and a prequel to Christmas at Carrington's! Georgie Hart can't believe her luck. It looks like Tom, the hunky boss of Carrington's Department Store, in the picture-postcard town of Mulberry-on-Sea, is as hot for her as she is for him. After a romantic Italian get-together leaves her on Cloud Nine, Georgie is brought back down to earth with a bump when she has to get back behind the counter of the Luxury Handbags section. But when Georgie is left open-mouthed by a revelation from one of her well-heeled customers, it seems like Tom hasn't been entirely honest with her. Has Georgie done her usual trick of adding two and two together to make five? Ever wondered what happened when Georgie first got together with Mr. Carrington himself? This deliciously funny short story is perfect for anyone who loved Cupcakes at Carrington's, and for those discovering the lovable Georgie Hart for the first time. The story also features an exclusive peek at the next book, Christmas at Carrington's. • Perfect for fans of Christmas at Tiffany's by Karen Swan and Meet Me at the Cupcake Cafe by Jenny Colgan. • Cupcakes at Carrington's was ecstatically received by readers and reviewers alike, with special praise from Sarah Broadhurst and five star reviews on Amazon. • Alexandra's has had previous success writing a popular column for The London Paper. • Cupcakes at Carrington's began a series of three books which will capture seasonal markets, such as Christmas and Valentine's Day. • Alexandra Brown has created a wonderfully witty heroine with a deliciously mischievous take on life.
