What to expect
Is he too good to be true?
Meet Theo. Handsome, sexy, funny. kind. And he can cook.
He's literally the man of Esme's dreams. But Esme's sensible enough to know that you can't just manifest your perfect boyfriend then have him turn up on your doorstep.
Or can you?

Critics Review

Romantic, funny, sweet and sexy
Marian Keyes
-
The funny, clever, deeply romantic, sinfully sexy, devastatingly heartbreaking, perfectly uplifting book of your dreams. Sarra Manning is the absolute Queen of funny, heartfelt, deeply emotional romances, and The Man of Her Dreams is romcom perfection
Cressida McLaughlin

A very swoony, sexy, warm read

I absolutely, completely, entirely and wholly adored The Man of Her Dreams. I didn't think Sarra's writing could get any better . . . but she has somehow surpassed herself. It manages to be romantic, relatable and heartfelt, while also being such an compelling, intriguing story - I couldn't put it down. I'll be thinking about this special book for a long time to come, and recommending it to everyone I know.

Smart, funny, audacious, and dazzlingly romantic. The Man of Her Dreams is an utterly ingenious romcom with the breathless page-turning quality of a thriller. I could not put it down. Sarra Manning just gets better and better.

Not what I was expecting, in the best way. I thought it was emotional and profound and so so hot, with an intriguing and surprising concept gorgeously delivered
