What to expect
Brought to you by Penguin.
One bad date too many calls for desperate measures . . .
Nora is well and truly fed up. After more painfully bad dates than she can count, she’s had enough of leaving it to fate to find her perfect match – but she's not quite ready to give up on her love life just yet.
As a statistician, Nora trusts numbers more than her gut, so when she finds a formula that could help her conquer the dating game, she has to give it a go.
Putting her love theory to the test takes Nora to some questionable places with some even more questionable men, but she won't be deterred – she knows that 'the one' must be out there, somewhere. Even if he's the last person she'd have expected. . .

Full of Bella’s trademark wit and warmth, Not Quite Done with Dating had me laughing out loud and smiling at the cast of characters, whom you want to be your friends too.

(Not Quite) Done With Dating is deliciously warm and funny romcom. I loved the beautifully-drawn Nora and her circle of friends. Renee had me laughing out loud. How nice to see an older character brimming with mischief and wisdom. I adore the uplifting mixture of comedy, sparkling wit and magnetic romance, with a few hilarious bad dates thrown in. And what a wonderful ending. The novel is so skilfully written. Bella is a master of her craft. She has become a new favourite.
