The Dr Pepper Prophecies by Jennifer Gilby Roberts

The Dr Pepper Prophecies

Mel is a twenty-five-year-old underachiever with a terrible job, too much time on her hands and a perfect younger sister. Her work and love lives hit a new low when she ends up working for her ex.

The one good thing in her life has always been her best friend Will, who has seen her through every crisis from lost toys to pregnancy scares. Now a successful accountant, he looks a prime catch to his girlfriend Natalie, who’s determined to replace Mel as the woman in his life.

Despairing of improving her own life, she sets out to help her friends instead.

After all, what’s the worst that can happen?

A contemporary romantic comedy (chick lit) based loosely on Jane Austen’s ‘Emma’. Similar in style to works by Sophie Kinsella and Jane Costello.

At present this book is only available to buy for Kindle through Amazon.

About this author

Jennifer Gilby Roberts has a degree in physics and a postgraduate certificate in computing, so writing fiction was inevitable really. She was born and grew up in Surrey/Greater London, but now lives in Richmond, North Yorkshire with her husband, small daughter, two middle-aged cats and a lot of dust bunnies. She also has a grown-up step-daughter and a large extended family (by marriage).

Her job right now is taking care of her younger daughter (who was born three months premature, but is doing just fine now), but previously she worked many thrilling jobs in administration, including one in an insurance claims office (wholly unrelated to the one in ‘The Dr Pepper Prophecies’…).

She’s written two novels, both in the chick-lit genre, four novellas and a variety of short stories.
