Description
______________________________
'I loved this completely. This is a bright, brilliant, joyful love story. A total triumph.' Josie Silver, bestselling author of ONE DAY IN DECEMBER
In this sparkling romantic comedy, a young journalist tampers with her magazine's horoscopes to win her friend's heart - and sets in motion an unpredictable and often hilarious ripple effect. . .
___________________________
Destiny doesn't happen by accident . . .
When Justine Carmichael (Sagittarius, aspiring journalist and sceptic) bumps into her teenage crush Nick Jordan (Aquarius, struggling actor and true believer) it could be by chance. Or it could be written in the stars.
Justine works at the Alexandria Park Star - and Nick, she now learns, relies on the magazine's astrology column to guide him in life.
Looking for a way to get Nick's attention, Justine has the idea of making a few small alterations to the horoscope for Aquarius before it goes to print.
After all, it's only the stars. What could possibly go wrong?
Star-crossed is a perfect love story for fans of Marian Keyes, Sophie Kinsella and Josie Silver.
