Three days, two perfect strangers and one missing cat. To Nora and Ali, it's their situation but to anyone else who knows the pair, it's a recipe for disaster.
***
Nora and Ali do not know one another. In fact, their exchanges had been minimal until one day Ali entered the local halal chicken takeaway, demanding Nora's attention. And her help.
Billy the Cat is missing, and Nora was the last person to have seen him, having welcomed him to the local pet shop hotel. Only, what Ali does not know is that Billy isn't missing, he has been sold.
Having lost her job as a result of the situation, Nora chooses to take advantage, and offers Ali her assistance. Only, she doesn't have any knowledge or expertise on the matter, and really, just wants to put this situation behind her.
Forced on a journey to Scotland, Ali and Nora have no choice but to work together to find Billy...and quite possibly steal him back.
With clashing personalities and three days on the road, will these two strangers be able to find Billy? And along the way, perhaps even find themselves?

Charlie's Web (A Romantic Comedy)
"We met earlier, kind of," he smiled at her. "I'm Jake." "H-hi!" How had she missed him before? He was delightful. Dark blond hair, slate grey eyes . . . and oh my goodness, that smile!!! To be fair, back in the bar, all of their faces had been merging together, but now she was a bit more with it, she could see this guy was pretty much perfection. What a shame she was getting married . . . No, wait, she wasn't. But he thought she was. And yet here he was, apparently interested. Time to see how this one played out . . . ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Charlotte Tyler has a theory - when it comes to girls, all guys want what they can't have. The fact her colleague Aaron flirted with her constantly while she was in a relationship and lost interest the second she was single has in no way disproved this theory. And so her best friend Thea comes up with a way to test this further - if Charlie stages her own hen night, will she manage to hook an unsuspecting guy? Despite being technically off-the-market? It seems like a crazy idea. But the plan, surprisingly, is a resounding success, and Charlie actually meets and starts to fall for someone as a result. But with an imaginary fiance and an upcoming fictional wedding to juggle, her lies are starting to spin out of control. Is this what she really wants?Complete
