Sometimes, the hardest part of finding love is keeping a straight face...' For Jamie Newman, being a single guy isn't proving to be much fun, especially when confronted with a sexually belligerent divorcee and a goddess so far out of his league she might as well be a different species. Mind you, being a girl in search of love isn't a bowl of cherries either. Just ask Laura McIntyre, who's recently contended with a horny estate agent on a quest for light relief, and a rabid mountain bike enthusiast with a penchant for genital display. When Jamie and Laura bump into one another (quite literally) it looks like their luck may have changed - but sometimes finding the right person is only the start of your problems... Based on real-life tales of dating disaster and relationship blunders, Love... From Both Sides is a warts-and-all romantic comedy for everyone who knows …

Another great find from Kim, and truly hilarious in spots, this was a feel-good story and I want to read the sequel now. It’s the second Spalding I’ve read of course; Fat Chance was very enjoyable, if not quite as laugh-out-loud funny. There were a few vulgarities here, especially the pedal-bin incident, so don’t read if you’ve got a sensitive stomach.
