Lila loves to have fun. Free and in her late forties she enjoys the thrill of dating younger men, no strings attached just plenty of good times.

So why then has the dating scene lost its sparkle? The thrill has gone, and she would much rather have a night out with her girlfriends or a night in alone enjoying a good film and an even better bottle of wine. Enter Seb, her dependable workmate who’s been patiently waiting in the wings, his affection for Lila evident to the world.

To Lila, a relationship with Seb seems as likely as finding a calorie-free cream cake – his style is questionable, and he’s just too safe and dependable, a genuinely nice guy but maybe just too nice for Lila. But then Seb does the unthinkable – he starts dating Lila’s sworn frenemy, who transforms him from a caterpillar into a butterfly.

Suddenly Lila sees Seb in a whole new light. Has the window of opportunity now slammed shut, too late for Lila to make a move?In this wickedly funny tale, love is a battlefield, and Lila is armed with determination, humour, and the willingness to break a few rules to find her happily ever after.
