A Perfect Story Spiral-Bound | 2024-07-23

International bestselling author Elísabet Benavent explores a dramatic romance between two people from opposite ends of the social hierarchy and the ultimate meaning of happiness

Margot Ortega always struggled to be the princess in her own fairytale: a successful career, a huge salary, a gorgeous apartment, and a perfect fiance. But on her wedding day, she suffers a major panic attack and has to call it off.

Devastated and ashamed, Margot decides to drown her sufferings in a mad night of alcohol and dancing. The next day, she goes back to the sleazy club to retrieve her sister's cell phone, and has a crazy encounter with David Sánchez, the handsome, fun-loving bartender who persuades her to pretend to be his new girlfriend in order to make his ex jealous. David recognizes the sadness in her eyes, and together they conspire to help each other get their exes back. Little do they know how much fun they'll have and how much they'll complicate their lives.

A trip to Greece together that Margot sees as a way to get away from the pressures to pick up the pieces of her perfect life, creates an unexpected connection and depth of intimacy between two people who belong to two totally different worlds, with nothing at all in common. What starts as a simple escape for fun and adventure becomes complicated and devastating when the depth of their feelings pulls the two lovers in different directions and forces them to make life-altering decisions.
