Operation Sunshine: Jenny Colgan

Evie is desperate for a holiday - a good one. Not only because she`s been working all hours as a receptionist for two high-powered plastic surgeons, but also because every holiday she`s ever been on has involved sunburn, arguments and projectile vomiting - sometimes all three at once. Why can`t she have a normal holiday like everyone else: peaceful beaches, glorious sunshine and (fingers crossed) some much-needed sex?

So when Evie`s employers invite her to attend a conference with them in the beautiful South of France, she can`t believe her luck. At last, the chance to hob nob with the rich and glamorous, to party under the stars, to live life as she`d always dreamt of it. It`s the holiday of a lifetime - but things don`t happen in quite the way Evie imagines. . .
