Rumor Has It: In a town this small, a secret is hard to keep


I've finished reading "Rumor has it" by Jill Mansell.

Product Description

Would you be tempted?

Newly single, Tilly Cole impulsively accepts a job offer in a small town as a "Girl Friday." Fun job, country house, fresh start, why not? But soon she finds herself in a hotbed of gossip, intrigue, and rampant rivalry for the town's most desirable bachelor - Jack Lucas.

Rumors of Jack's "love 'em and leave 'em" escapes abound, and Tilly decides to do the mature, sensible thing... avoid Jack at all cost. But the more time Tilly spends with Jack, the more the rumors just don't make sense. Tilly doesn't know what to believe... and Jack's not telling.

About the Author

A full-time writer, Ms. Mansell worked for many years at the Burden Neurological Hospital, Bristol. She lives with her partner and their children in Bristol, England.

My Review:

I don't read much chick lit books but I'm glad I read this one because it was hilarious with British humor and it was a light and fluffy which was fast paced.  There are some serious storylines going on and they were well written.

Tilly is  a great character and I'm glad she didn't give in to her attraction to Jack right away but to remain friends at first.

Jack is a tall, dark and, oozing sexiness and charming who has a reputation with the ladies.

I would recommend reading this for a summer read or laying on the beach wanting to read a great book!

4/5
