Love Rules - Tapa dura

The first novel for HarperFiction from the Guardian top 100 fastseller and Sunday Times top five bestseller is an intelligent, fun and feelgood novel about best friends, about settling down and about throwing it all away...

Do you fall in love with your heart or your head? Two best friends have two different attitudes to love: one is sensible, practical, and contented with her kind husband; the other makes impetuous romantic choices that lead to broken hearts and high drama. But what happens when the married friend encounters real passion for the first time? When she starts to wonder if she's made the right choice?

A novel about best friends, about settling down and about throwing it all away...

Freya North gave up a Ph.D. to write her first novel, Sally. For four years she turned deaf ears to parents and friends who pleaded with her to "get a proper job". She went on the dole and did a succession of freelance and temping jobs. Five publishers entered a bidding war for the book, and her first novel, Sally, was published to great acclaim. Her subsequent books, Chloe, Polly, Cat, Fen, Pip , Love Rules, Home Truths and Pillow Talk have all proved bestsellers.
