On midsummer s day, Phoebe Bowler - star-sign demon - should have returned home an ecstatically happy new bride. Instead, she s been jilted at the altar. In need of sympathy, perhaps she could turn to her neighbour, the dishy Rocky Lancaster
But with problems of his own he s turned into Mr Grumpy and wants to be left alone. That is until Essie Rivers arrives on the scene, and then Phoebe and Rocky s paths seem destined to collide with a very big bump.Essie knows far more about astrology, personolgy, numerology - any ology you care to mention - than Phoebe has ever heard of. But it is the secret magic of birthday-ology that catches Phoebe s eye. Can she really use a birthday to find a perfect match or to set her and Rocky back on the path to happiness Phoebe thinks so, but that s when things start to go really wrong...'H.E.
