A Hopeless Romantic by Harriett Evans
Laura Foster is very much a head in the clouds, daydreamer type. Her friends have always found it in parts amusing and exasperating; it was simply how Laura was. But when Laura lets her dreams carry her too far from reality, resulting in a broken heart and a probationary period at her beloved job, she decides a complete personality overhaul is in order. That, and a trip to the seaside with her parents and grandmother. At Chartley Hall, Laura meets Nick, the decidedly good-looking, funny estate manager. But with Nick, what one sees is not what one gets. Did Laura totally misread the situation--and the guy--again?
