Synopsis

'The must-have beach read this summer' Telegraph
________

'There's something you should know before we go any further: my heart is in the wrong place. Now don't say I didn't warn you . . .'

Perhaps that's why nothing in Alvie's life has ever gone right? Until now.

She can finally abandon her credit card debt - and her fruitless three-way relationship with Tinder and Twitter - when fate gives her the chance to steal her identical twin's perfect life.

It's just a shame Beth had to die to make Alvie's dreams come true.

So begin seven days of sex, violence and unapologetic selfies - one wild week that sees Alvie break every rule in the book. She never did have much respect for boundaries.

It might be madness, but rules are meant to be broken. Right?

Mad is the first in the sexy, shocking and compulsively readable Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know trilogy.

Praise for Mad:

'So begins this caper that has Alvina up to her neck in designer labels, hot sex and trouble . . . outrageous' Daily Mail

'A summer read to make you hotter than the weather outside . . . you'd be mad not to find room for this in your case' Sun

'I just read Mad in one go. I bloody LOVED it. Like Gone Girl, if Amy Schumer had written it. SUCH fun' Bryony Gordon, bestselling author of Mad Girl

'Trust us when we say that you won't ever have encountered a character quite like Alvie Knightly - the often-drunk, sex-mad, always-sassy heroine . . . A brilliantly bonkers read' Heat
