The patrician Bevan family clings to British tradition while wrestling with taxes, tree blight, and family skeletons.
Rory, the youngest son, runs a business that rents out mansions for weddings and tours to help the owners pay upkeep on their dilapidated estates. Enter Maggie, an American TV journalist hoping to
find something disreputable to write home about. Sent to London to do an exposé on the aristocracy, she hires Rory to get her access to the most private families. The two immediately clash,
bickering until a romance springs up where it seemed least likely.
A delightfully funny love story exploring loyalty and family, Hunting Unicorns is ultimately about having the courage to risk everything in the pursuit of what really counts.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“[Pollen] hits the spot every time with her funny and frank observations of modern London life.” —Sunday Times (London)
“Hilariously accurate…Pollen is undoubtedly a gifted writer with a pithy, poetic style.” —Daily Mail (London)
“Pollen’s flashy, witty, urbane romantic comedy digs affectionately at the blue-blooded English.” —Publishers Weekly
“This two-voice reading works quite well. Cazanove, who can sound tetchily upper crust with the best of them, brings a world-weary drawl to his interpretation. De Cuir is up-tempo and admirably quick with the zingers that pierce Rory’s reserve.” —AudioFile
“This is a sharp, funny novel about finding love and family secrets. Very enjoyable!” —Book Sense
