Awards for Works

Molly Cooper's Dream Date , 2011 novel single work

'What do you do when you realise the one you want is half a world away, living in your home, sleeping in your bed?

'Wow! This is amazing! I've house-swapped my little cottage in Australia for a bachelor pad in Chelsea. I can't wait to explore London. Most of all I'm hoping to meet my dream man, a perfect English gentleman! Though I'm starting to wonder whether Patrick, my house-swapper (who's now living in my house!) might actually be him. We've been emailing, and he sounds gorgeous. Imagine what sparks could fly if we met in person. I just might have to make that happen.' (Trove)
