Publisher's Synopsis
Platonic is a sizzling romantic comedy following a couple of months in the lives of Jack Matthews and Hayley Smith. Reminiscent of the storytelling styles of screen writer Richard Curtis and authors Nick Hornby and Belinda Jones, it’s a book for all sexes. Jack and Hayley work together and have seemingly the perfect platonic relationship. Possessing an ally in the opposites sexes camp not only gives each other valuable insight into the minds of prospective partners but also enables them to overtly flirt with each other without ulterior motive. They are perfectly happy and believe that they instinctively know where they stand with each other. However, the more their friends and family start to question the true nature of their relationship the more Jack and Hayley find themselves questioning it as well. A series of funny, touching, and bizarre events involving blind dates, a Christening, a Wedding, an ex-girlfriend, a Best man and some eccentric work colleagues provide the back drop for Jack and Hayley’s respective trips into confusion, denial, enlightenment, uncertainty and beyond. It’s only when they finally manage to clear away the fog that had merrily engulfed them during this time that they discover whether theirs is indeed the perfect platonic relationship.
