Alex is a disaster, juggling multiple writing jobs and living paycheque to paycheque in one of the world’s most expensive cities: London. Desperate, she applies to write an online advice column for a men’s magazine, landing the role against all odds.

After offering some ill-fated relationship advice to Ryan, she tries to fix her mistake while hiding her identity as his ‘agony uncle’. The two fall for each other, and Alex believes she has finally met the love of her life — but Ryan is in love with a lie.

At the same time, Alex is ghost-writing the biography of Sir John Fenton, a retired Member of Parliament with secrets of his own. As her world unravels, can she help put Sir John’s back together?
