LOCAL GIRL SWEPT OFF HER FEET
Mild-mannered publicist Holly Phillips is unlucky in love. She’s embarrassed beyond belief when the handsome stranger she meets in a bar turns out to be ‘Ultimate Man’ – a superpowered hero whose rescue attempt finds her hoisted over his shoulder and flashing her knickers in the newspaper the next day.
But when Holly’s fifteen minutes of fame make her a target for something villainous, she only has one place to turn – and finds the man behind the mask holds a lot more charm than his crime-fighting alter-ego.
Can Holly find love, or is superdating just as complicated as the regular kind?

Entertaining and weirdly refreshing . . . Oh, and it's funny. Like, really funny . . . the humour could light a forest fire
Want something different? Want a good laugh? Then this is the book for you . . . hysterically funny
In short: superheroes, romance, a dash of humour and a gentle dig at 21st century popular culture
If you're looking for a fun escapist read this summer then Spandex and the City could be just the book for you
Charming and completely addictive
It's wonderfully different, romantic, quirky and has the warmth and humour I love from a Jenny Colgan novel
I became hooked from the very first chapter by Ms. Colgan's easy, relaxing, writing style, and her delightful, playful plot, unlike any of her other work that I have read
