Willow Campbell is fed up. Sales on her cosmetics counter are worse than ever and her insufferable boss is breathing down her neck.

So when dashing New Yorker Rick Delgado breezes into her life and sweeps her off her Repetto-clad feet, Willow finds him difficult to resist.

Ignoring the warnings of her colleagues on the beauty hall floor, Willow headed off into the sunset with Rick...but his “Manhattan” loft is a bedsit in Queens and his ex, Isabella, appears to be in residence.

Scorned Isabella alerts the authorities of a suspected “Green Card Marriage,” setting off a chain reaction with dramatic consequences.

Now, faced with the threat of deportation and her marriage over before it had the chance to begin, does she find the courage to remain in New York and re-build her life or does she book that one-way flight back to Glasgow, to start all over again?

Warpaint is Book 1 in the laugh-out-loud 'Brit Girl Abroad' romcom series. If you adore Mhairi McFarlane, Beth O'Leary and Portia Macintosh you'll love J.J.Maya!
