Kelly Payne wants only two things in life. To stop being thick, and to stop loving Will Grey. But how do you get clever when you’re bad at learning, and how do you stop loving when your heart doesn’t want to?

Her friend Geraldine says reading is educational, so Kelly raids Netta Wilde’s study and picks up Pride and Prejudice. When an old postcard falls out, it sets her on a trail of books and postcards that might just change her life. Suddenly, she’s imagining all kinds of possibilities. And when the beautiful Marcus asks her out, she even dares to dream of a happy ending without Will.

But old doubts have a habit of dragging her down. As long buried memories resurface, Kelly finds herself questioning all the truths she held dear. Then along comes Obie, Man of Misery, and life is instantly more annoying.

Kelly is about to learn the hard way, there’s more to education than books and learning, and everything she thought she knew about love and loneliness was completely wrong.

Because happy endings don’t belong in real life. And there’s no man in the world like Mr Darcy, is there?
