The Burnout by Sophie Kinsella

The irresistible new romantic comedy and instant Sunday Times bestseller.

Discover the joy that awaits when you set yourself free...

Sasha is well and truly over it all: work (all-consuming), friendships (on the back burner), sex-life (non-existent). Armed with good intentions to drink kale smoothies, try yoga and find solitude, she heads to the Devon resort she loved as a child.

But it's off-season, the hotel is falling apart and she has to share the beach with a grumpy, stressed-out guy called Finn. 

How can she commune with nature when he's sitting on a rock, watching her suspiciously?

Especially when they don't agree on burnout cures.

(Sasha: manifesting, wild swimming, secret Mars bars; Finn: drinking whisky.)

But when curious messages start appearing on the beach, Sasha and Finn are forced to begin talking – about everything.

What's the mystery?

Why are they both burned out?

And what exactly is 'manifesting', anyway?

They might discover that they have more in common than they think. . .
