Josie Lloyd . Random House UK . English
Come Together was the first romantic comedy told in two voices. Now, in Come Again, Josie Lloyd and Emlyn Rees put friendship under the spotlight as four very different characters are thrust together for the wedding of their mutual friends. Friends. You can't live with them - you can't live without them. Or so MATT is discovering. His best friend is getting married, leaving him high and dry. No flat-mate - and no girlfriend. Then he remembers HELEN (H to her friends). H has no life outside her brilliant career - and all her best friend, Amy wants to talk about is her wedding. Which suits STRINGER, because catering the wedding is his first real chance to prove himself. The last thing he needs is to fall for one of the bride's friends, SUSIE, particularly because she's sworn off men while she sorts out her life-- Friendship, commitment, work, lust and loyalty all come under the spotlight as Matt, H, Stringer and Susie relate - in their own voices - events in the run-up to the big day. From the Trade Paperback edition.

About the Author
Josie Lloyd had been writing novels for twenty-five years. Mother of three daughters and a beloved dog, Ziggy, she lives in Brighton in the UK with her husband, Emlyn Rees. Together they have written seven internationally bestselling novels, including Come Together, which was a Sunday Times #1 bestseller in the UK, and was published in twenty-seven languages and made into a Working Title film. They've also written several parodies of their favourite children's books, including 'We're Going On A Bar Hunt', 'The Very Hungover Caterpillar' and 'The Teenager Who Came To Tea'. Josie and Emlyn's first co-written novel in 17 years is called 'You & Me & You & Me & You & Me' and is being published by Penguin in 2026. Josie was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017 after a routine scan. She wanted to read something positive, hopeful and uplifting about what she was going through, and so wrote 'The Cancer Ladies' Running Club'. As well as writing contemporary fiction, Josie writes big, sweeping historical dramas under the name Joanna Rees. Her latest 'Stitch In Time' trilogy is set in the 1920's in London, Paris and New York. When she's not writing, Josie loves travelling, cooking and is a keen sea swimmer and swims all year round no matter what the weather.
