About this title

Review:

'Wolff's depiction of the up-and-down world of life for a go-getting Londoner is both hilarious and accurate and the plot moves quickly with abundant twists and turns... truly gripping.' The Times.

From the Back Cover:

EVERYONE LIKES RADIO REPORTER MINTY – SHE’S SO TERRIBLY NICE.

But being nice doesn’t save her from being jilted at the very altar by her attractive but domineering fiance Dominic. Ditched, rather than hitched, a shocked Minty takes stock, and, on her husbandless honeymoon, she vows to become just a little less “nice”. Joined by her fiery cousin Amber, whom no one could describe as sweet-natured, Minty sets out on a Quest for the Self, in which she will finally learn how to say “No”.

But Dominic’s devastating desertion has left her with an unhealed wound. For if the man she loved could do that to her, then how can any man be trusted? But then Minty stumbles upon the real reason for Dominic’s dreadful defection. Faced with the ugly truth she prepares to move on, let go, and learn how to say “Yes” once more.
