Jojo Moyes's latest, One Plus One, is out in paperback tomorrow and to celebrate the publisher is letting me offer up a copy for giveaway.If you haven't read this one yet, you can check out my review post here. Here's a bit about the book from the publisher as well:
Like her breakout smash hit Me Before You, ONE PLUS ONE is a heartwarming tale of family dysfunction and devotion, the power of love, and second chances, told with Moyes’s trademark sensitivity and humor.
Suppose your life sucks—a lot. Your husband has done a vanishing act, your teenage stepson is being bullied, and your math whiz daughter has a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that you can’t afford to pay for. If you’re Jess Thomas, you do what you always do—make it work.
Jess and her family (including their giant, smelly dog Norman) begin their doomed-from-the-start adventure stranded on the side of the road next to a dilapidated Rolls Royce—sans license, sans insurance—having just been pulled over by the police for a missing headlight. And the unexpected knight in shining armor who rescues them? Geeky Ed, the obnoxious tech millionaire whose vacation home Jess happens to clean. With big problems of his own, Ed, in perhaps his first ever unselfish act, offers to drive Jess and her dysfunctional brood to the Maths Olympiad and a prize that could turn everything around for Jess’s family.
This unlikely cast of characters is easy to fall for: Nicky, Jess’s stepson, wears mascara, doesn’t fit in at school, but is fiercely protective of Tanzie, Jess’s precocious math prodigy daughter; Jess and Ed are the kind of opposites you love to watch attract; and pungent Norman, the immovable mascot of the back seat, is the best guard dog you’ll ever find drooling on your shoulder.
One Plus One is also available on audio.

I loved Me Before You, cannot wait to read this one!
Thanks for the giveaway!
sounds different
Here's the story of my interest in this book:
I first heard of this author long ago when some friends claimed to me she wrote novels with love stories that even I could enjoy -- I'm more or less allergic to pure romance. Every excerpt and plot description I've read in the year or so since has served to give credence to that original bold claim. I am now very eager indeed to give a Moyes novel a go finally! It's good to surprise oneself with some flexibility every once in a while, right?
Cheers, Kara S
This sounds like a good book -- thanks for the chance to win.
