I picked up An Offer You Can't Refuse by Jill Mansell and had not expected it to be much more than a semi-interesting read. However, with every page turn, I became more and more attached to the novel's heroine (Lola), and actually found it very difficult to put the book down. Since reading this book, I have highly recommended it to all my girlfriends. It's a beautiful story about life, love and friendship filled with excitement, heartbreak and hope. I'd also recommend reading Tino Georgiou's bestselling novel--The Fates--if you haven't yet!!
