ReTreat Yourself

Treat yourself to a BRILLIANTLY FUNNY, feel-good and relatable romantic comedy from Jo Lyon

He's super hot. She’s a super hot mess...

When Nell loses the promotion she’s spent years working towards, it’s bad enough. But when it goes to her glamorous sister Ava – who then helps orchestrate Nell’s entire team being made redundant – it’s the final straw. Humiliated, heartbroken and in full-scale emotional meltdown, Nell does the only sensible thing: she flees to Spain.

Her escape plan involves a wellness retreat, a complete reinvention and absolutely no more people-pleasing. Unfortunately, the retreat turns out to be a caffeine-and-wifi-free spiritual bootcamp fuelled by sticks for breakfast, tree hugging and enforced emotional honesty. Worse still, Nell keeps running into Oliver – a super-hot, kind stranger who witnessed her airport breakdown, accidentally got detained by armed police alongside her, and now seems impossible to avoid.

As Nell scrambles to fake her way into a new career as a life coach while hiding a growing mountain of lies, she begins to question if she’s spent her entire life trying to please everyone except herself.

Could facing up to her poor decisions of the past be the key to living her best life in the future?

A warm, chaotic and laugh-out-loud rom com of second chances, self-discovery and finding love when your life is falling apart. Fans of Beth O'Leary, Sophie Kinsella and Portia MacIntosh will love it!
