Brace Yourself is a light-hearted look at the atypical life of 'nice' Lizzy, who doesn't understand why her body and her men always let her down. Looking to regain control of her life in this rom-com with a twist, will Lizzy's bright-side attitude finally attract the perfect partner?

We join Lizzy on her humorous journey through a series of painful disasters. With bad choices, bad men and bad Doctors behind her, can Lizzy finally brace herself for a comfortable life?

Lizzy spent much of her life negotiating undiagnosed Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTs), Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, Fibromyalgia and associated conditions. Rated 5 stars by fellow 'Spoonies' and 'Zebras', with plenty of relatable moments, this un-putdownable novel combines rom-com with Lizzy's health struggles until she finally gets her diagnosis.

The author brings the often-hidden topic of chronic illness into a mainstream novel, combining all the best bits of a rom-com with awareness about life with rare or invisible health problems.

Brace Yourself is a must read!
