Meet Ella Canfield, highly qualified evolutionary biologist. Attractive, if a little serious-looking in those heavy glasses--but then she's about to put her career on the line. Dr Canfield is seeking funding for a highly unorthodox research project. She wants to prove that an extinct animal still roams in one of Australia's most popular national parks. Meet Daniel Metcalf, good-looking, expensively dishevelled millionaire. Quite witty but far too rich to be taken seriously. He heads the Metcalf Trust, which donates money to offbeat scientific research projects. He has a personal interest in animals that don't exist. Problem number one: There is no such person as Dr Ella Canfield. Problem number two: Della Gilmore, professional con artist, has never met anyone like Daniel Metcalf before. Someone is going to take a fall. A sparkling, sexy read from the author of Addition, a Richard and Judy book club hit, Fall Girl is a story about passion and loyalty, deceit and integrity, and the importance of believing in things that don't exist.

Review:

For ADDITION:'Bringing a quirky humour and a sympathetic view of diversity to her story, the author sustains the momentum to the end of this engaging romantic comedy' -- The Times 'An unusual and intriguing novel, written with a very light touch' -- Daily Mail 'Brimming with sarcastic humour' -- Guardian 'Toni Jordan's debut is mature, witty and entertaining' -- Irish Times 'It's laugh-out-loud funny and painfully sad in turns ... It is a quick read and extremely hard to put down, as you get addicted to Grace's addictive personality' -- Amanda Ross, Richard & Judy Summer Read 'You'll be hearing more from this talented author' -- Choice 'A sweet, charming, witty, romantic book' -- BBC Radio 2, The Weekender
