Edie Thompson

International bestseller Mhairi McFarlane delivers a charming, hilarious, and heartfelt new novel about a woman adjusting to life in the spotlight when she begins a relationship with a famous actor, in this highly anticipated follow-up to “Who's That Girl.” She found The One. But when everyone wants him, can she keep him? Edie found true love. And on Christmas day, he's knocking at her door. Elliot Owen is handsome, charming and basically Hollywood royalty. And, he insists, madly in love with Edie Thompson: an ordinary citizen with tomato soup stains on her coat. It's going to be complicated. Edie will have to learn how to live in the limelight, but they're just too good together not to try. Edie discovers it's not easy when the press is the third person in your relationship, or when stories start leaking that force you to mistrust the motives of those around you. It's tricky when you're separated by an ocean and gorgeous co-stars and charismatic new colleagues are closer by. It's harder still when your past is raked up by envious people determined to destroy your present. Edie already knows how it feels to be infamous, now she's going to find out what it's like to be famous. Are she and Elliot a fairytale, or a cautionary fable about getting what you wish for?

When Edie is caught in a compromising position at her colleagues' wedding, all the blame falls on her. Shamed online, her boss suggests an extended sabbatical — ghost-writing an autobiography for hot new acting talent, Elliot Owen. Banished back to her home town of Nottingham, Edie suffers an excruciating regression to her teenage years when she moves back with her father and sister. When the world is asking who you are, it's hard not to question yourself.

She kissed the groom. She's not the bride... Edie thought she'd found The One...until he told her he was marrying someone else. And on the day of his wedding, when he kisses her, life really does go pear-shaped... Labelled as a homewrecker and office outcast, when her boss offers her the chance to get out of town Edie jumps at it, even though moving back in with her eccentric father and prickly sister isn't exactly the escape she needs. When her work throws her into the path of rising star and heartthrob Elliot, Edie is expecting a highly strung diva. But as their unexpected friendship develops, Elliot isn't the only one in the spotlight... Who's that girl? Edie is ready to find out.
