What to expect

And now, pre-order Mhairi’s brilliant new romcom, BETWEEN US, coming spring 2023!

Two strangers.

One big coincidence.

Driving each other crazy is just the beginning…

Harriet Hatley is running away from everything.

Getting married.
Her boyfriend’s family.
Her past.

A dream house-share seems like the perfect place to hide, but her unlikely housemate Cal is no stranger to running away himself. And he's also hiding secrets of his own . . .

Can these two take a crazy risk, face the past and finally find a reason to stay?
