The Case of the Missing Boyfriend (The Missing Boyfriend Series, 1)

The Case of the Missing Boyfriend (The Missing Boyfriend Series, 1)

by NickAlexander (Author)

Synopsis

Thirty-nine year old CC is living the urban dream: a high-powered job in advertising, a beautiful flat, and a wild bunch of gay friends to spend the weekends with. And yet she feels like the Titanic - slowly, inexorably, and against all expectation, sinking.

The truth is, CC would rather be digging turnips on a remote farm than convincing the masses to buy a life-changing pair of double-zippered jeans - rather be snuggling at home with the Missing Boyfriend than playing star fag-hag in London's latest coke-spots. But sightings of men without weird fetishes or secret wives are rarer than an original metaphor, and CC fears that pursuing the Good Life alone will just leave her feeling even more isolated.

Could her best friend's pop-psychology be right? Are the horrors of CC's past preventing her from moving on? And if CC finally does confront her demons, will she find the Missing Boyfriend? Or is it already too late?

Media Reviews
CC is a compulsively likeable Everywoman, part Doris Day, part Bridget Jones, her life laid bare with Nick Alexander's trademark mix of forensic detail and warm-hearted comedy * Rupert Smith, author of Man's World *
Deceptively simple prose effortlessly morphs from comedy to tragedy to searing interior monologue... At last here is a book that gives readers what theywant - chicklit with intelligence * Alex Hopkins, Out There Magazine *
