Book description
It's fair to say that Charlie Glass is carrying a little excess
baggage - emotionally and physically.
For years her excess weight means she's been the butt of her skinny
stepmother and half sisters' jokes, and she's had enough.
So, after a few weeks at a boot camp, Charlie returns slim, gorgeous
and ready to run the shoe firm that, to her sisters' annoyance, she
has inherited from their beloved father. And when she bags a glamorous
boyfriend, her transformation is complete.
Life is almost perfect (skinny stepmother aside), but her best
friend Lucy seems resentful, Ferdy, the man she has secretly adored
for years, apparently preferred her the way she was, and the constant
battle to stay thin and beautiful is torture.
Would it really matter if the weight crept back on? There's only one
way to find out.
Angela Woolfe has wanted to be a writer ever since discovering that
the nuns at her junior school would let her off maths homework if she
wrote a story instead. After unexpected detours via law, magazine
journalism, and even musical theatre, she began writing her first novel
in 2011. Holly lives with her husband in London. She still avoids maths.
