THERE'S JUST ONE ACCESSORY ANNIE VALENTINE CAN'T FIND . . . THE PERFECT MAN!
Meet Annie Valentine: stylish, savvy, multi-tasker extraordinaire.
As a personal shopper in a swanky London fashion store, Annie can be relied on to solve everyone's problems . . . except her own.
Although she's a busy single mum to stroppy teen Lana and painfully shy Owen, there's a gap in Annie's wardrobe - sorry, life - for a new man. But finding the perfect partner is turning out to be so much trickier than finding the perfect pair of shoes.
Can she source a genuine classic? A life long investment? Will she end up with a mistake from the sale rail, who'll have to be returned?
Or maybe, just maybe, there'll be someone new in this season who could be the one . . .
