‘A predictably brilliant and joyful satirical page-turner from the ever-clever Alice Fraser’ Deborah Frances-White, comedian and host of The Guilty Feminist

‘This tome, surely destined to be regarded as the definitive LaGuarde collection, will take its rightful place in the Romance pantheon, to be read, enjoyed and cuddled as long as this famous species of ours retains an interest in the workings of its own fervid hearts’ Andy Zaltzman, comedian and host of The Bugle

‘A frivolous send-up of romance novels that alternates between meditations on the appeal of various subgenres and satirical back-cover copy for fictional romance books’ Publishers Weekly
