What to expect

Heart-warming, hilarious and unputdownable. You won’t want to miss this year’s stand out romantic comedy.

‘Fun and life-affirming’ STYLIST

‘This funny, uplifting rom-com is a total treat’ FABULOUS

‘Heart-warming, funny, and inspiring … A joy’ LOUISE O’NEILL

This is a love story…

Serena Mills should be at her wedding.

Instead, she’s eating an ice cream sundae and drinking an obscenely large glass of wine in a Harvester off the M25.

She’s left the man everyone told her she was ‘so lucky’ to find – because she’s realised that she wants to find love. Real love.

So she sets herself a challenge: 52 weeks. 52 dates. 52 chances to find real love.

But sometimes even the best laid plans don’t work out. And it’s the people that take you most by surprise who can really sweep you off your feet . . .
