I Knew You Were Trouble
The BRAND NEW instalment in Sandy Barker's gorgeously romantic Ever After Agency series. Don't get mad. Get even.
Kate Whitaker has always believed in love, but when a stranger named Willem shows up on her doorstep, the news he has to share isn't as exciting as his god-like looks might suggest. He's come to tell her that Kate's fiancé is also engaged to his sister.
Kate doesn't know how she didn't see the red flags: Jon's work as an airline pilot having him flying around the globe, the postponed dates, the huge rock of an engagement ring that isn't her style at all.
Overcome with fury - and entranced by the Nordic god's piercing blue eyes and quiet allure - Kate agrees to accompany Willem to his hometown of Amsterdam to help break the news to his sister. Yet what begins as a simple gesture of support soon twists into a deliciously devious plan to get back at Jon.
Kate is drawn into a world of retribution, revenge and - unexpectedly - romance. Because sometimes the best way to get over someone is to get under someone else...
A laugh-out-loud romantic comedy about broken trust, sweet revenge, and the surprising places we find love. Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella and Emily Henry.
