Blurb:
Georgie Hart can’t believe her luck. It looks like Tom, the hunky boss of Carrington’s Department Store, in the picture-postcard town of Mulberry-on-Sea, is as hot for her as she is for him. After a romantic Italian get-together leaves her on Cloud Nine, Georgie is brought back down to earth with a bump when she has to get back behind the counter of the Luxury Handbags section.

But when Georgie is left open-mouthed by a revelation from one of her well-heeled customers, it seems like Tom hasn’t been entirely honest with her. Has Georgie done her usual trick of adding two and two together to make five?

Ever wondered what happened when Georgie first got together with Mr Carrington himself? This deliciously funny short story is perfect for anyone who loved Cupcakes at Carrington’s, and for those discovering the lovable Georgie Hart for the first time. The story also features an exclusive peek at the next book, Christmas at Carrington’s.


Why you would love this:
Squeal! I've missed one of my favourite books this year, which is Cupcakes at Carrington's and when Alex told me she's writing an eBook exclusive short story, I was thrilled!

OK, I don't know where to start, my thoughts are a bit jumbled up, if I'm honest. There's Eddie, my sweet, gorgeous Eddie. He's mine, ladies. You can have Tom, oh Tom! Swooon. Not to forget my new best friend and designer handbag connoisseur, Georgie! If you've read Cupcakes at Carrington's, then think of Me and Mr Carrington as an in-between treat before you read Christmas at Carrington's which will be out in December!

Me and Mr Carrington is light-hearted, funny and enticing, a definite must-read if you've enjoyed Alexandra Brown's fabulously hilarious debut, and this is for those who simply cannot wait to read Christmas at Carrington's and catch up with the whole lot. Plus, there's an exclusive extract of Christmas at Carrington's to whet your appetite! :)
