It was supposed to be the trip of a lifetime…
In reality it was a business trip, prettied up as a romantic mini break, but the man behind the wheel was meant to be Candice Hart’s boss and (married but separated, I swear!) lover. Not Danny the new guy!
Not only is Candice faced with a new driver, but the office’s far too handsome hipster expects her to share the cramped space inside his “fully” restored VW Beetle, aka The Love Bug, and put up with his constant opinions about her life…
Before long she is tired of playing the ‘good girl’ and, with Danny’s help, is determined to finally show the world the real Candice Hart!
Don't miss this hilarious new novel from bestselling author of Bad Bridesmaid

She partied with friends, she cussed like a sailor, she wore outfits that would have definitely been deemed unfit by her staunch, older lover. She’s had to completely renovate herself, in order to feel she fits in. It’s what you do when you’re in love, right?When she discovers all is not fair where her love life is concerned, she ventures out on a trip of a lifetime with Danny, someone she barely knows but has thrust himself into her life. He’s so different, representing the kind of morals and life she feels she used to live. It feels very much like The Odd Couple, with these two. Danny just wants to live life by the seat of his pants, while Candice is content in wearing pleated pants. It’s a match made in dysfunctional heaven!Or is it? Candice admits, she might be developing a tiny little crush on Danny. He’s cute. Well, better than cute, he could be categorized as hot, in a geeky chic way. The problem is, she can’t forget about her boss, a man who has proclaimed his love for her and has sworn he’ll leave his wife, as soon as he’s able to. They’ve talked about a future together. Danny can’t think beyond the day he’s living in. Does she leave the security of what’s she’s known, for the unknown?I really enjoyed Drive Me Crazy! Having read Bad Bridesmaid and How Not to be Starstruck, it’s no surprise to me that Portia Macintosh has once again written characters who are very real, and very candid. It's the kind of book you have a hard time putting down, once you get going. I really believed in Candice’s struggle in finding out who she really is, the person she was before Danny, or the person she’s turning out to be because of him, and whether she should even let a man (or anyone) change her.

By Becca's Books There's one thought that is currently bouncing about in my mind, and has been doing so since I finished reading Drive Me Crazy. and that is that Portia Macintosh's book just keep getting better. I've adored all of Portia's previous novels that I've had the pleasure of reading - Between a Rockstar and a Hard Place, Bad Bridesmaid - and so I just couldn't wait to get my hands on her latest Drive Me Crazy. I completely adore the cover for this book, it's so fresh and vivid, and with that skyline in the distance, it just threw up a ton of possibilities for Portia's brand new characters who, by the way, I LOVED!What I adore about Portia's characters in her novels, specifically the heroine's, is that they are always sassy, smart and perhaps not at the beginning, but by the end of the book, stronger than they've ever been before. Portia introduces the reader to Candice Hart, and as soon as the novel opens and the story begins to unravel, it becomes immediately clear to the reader that Candice is in a rather uncomfortable position, physically and emotionally. Physically in the sense of being sprawled across Will, her boss's desk, and emotionally in the sense of being the 'other woman', which it becomes evident she is not happy about. Who can blame her? After an impromptu caller knocks at Will's office, Candice is shoved beneath the desk to be hidden from sight and this is how their relationship has been working for a long time now. Candice's internal thoughts, not forgetting her dialogue, emphasised to me just how sick of this fooling around she was becoming. It was obvious that what poor Candice wanted, more than anything, was to be able to walk with her head held high, with Will beside her, finally showing the world that they are an actual proper couple, rather than the dirty sneaking about that is truly beginning to grind her gears. I warmed to Candice's character immediately. I've never been in such a position myself but with Portia's brilliant prose, I was able to easily place myself with Candice's shoes and I couldn't blame her for wanting more. I mean, who on earth would want to be shoved ungracefully beneath a desk? It's hardly going to make you feel like a lady, is it? So, I was completely behind Candice's decisions from the beginning. I pretty much cared about her from the get-go. As I read about her thoughts, emotions and her ideas for the future, a shared future with Will, I just wanted to cuddle her up and perhaps steer her in another direction, a happier, more promising one. Will was dirty dog, and when a titbit of information is revealed to Candice in regards to Will and his wife? I absolutely hit the roof on Candice's behalf. I mean REALLY, WILL?! REAAAALLY?! YOU'RE GOING TO DO THAT RIGHT NOW?!?! Argh, rage! Portia was such a gorgeous woman, inside and out, with a heart of gold, despite having such a tragic past. She was so besotted with Will, and the author achieved such a fantastic hook between Candice and Will, describing to me perfectly how Candice felt towards him. Will had such a hold over her and I was desperate for Candice to break free, but in two minds about whether she'd have the strength to actually do so. Will was very controlling in terms of Candice's life, especially in regards to her watching figure and being careful about what she ate. I hate to see it but the girl had it bad, and I hated Will for having her wrapped around his little fingers so tightly.There were so many wonderful, engaging characters within Drive Me Crazy, all funny and charming in their own ways, but what I loved most about this novel was the adventure of self-discovery that Candice ends up going on. It was incredibly heart-warming, and the transition of Candice's character from beginning to end was beautifully achieved. With the help of annoying (yet bloody gorgeous) IT geek Danny, Candice sets out on what was supposed to be a romantic getaway, organised by Will, until he is needed by his wife, meaning he can no longer join her on the trip. I was absolutely THRILLED when I realised that it would in fact be Geordie guy Danny who'd be accompanying Candice on the trip, and with the slightly bad vibes between them, I just knew it was going to be the trip of a lifetime that could perhaps show Candice that she could enjoy life without a dirty dog beside her, and perhaps a handsome, geeky, Geordie guy instead. From drunken tattoos to honeymoon suites, a relationship between Candice and Danny begins to slowly build, but friends or something more? Who knows. Maybe Candice will never be able to get over Will, but she sure as hell is going to enjoy herself on this trip, Danny will make sure of it.Ultimately, Drive Me Crazy is about letting go of the things that hold you back from being the person you truly are, about screaming out "YOLO!" and enjoying every single second of the life you are given. This story was inspirational in more ways than one, making me want to set off on my own journey and see where I'd end up. It's about taking chances, believing in yourself and even, if needs be, throwing out a few expletives. Life was made for living, and Drive Me Crazy beautifully enforces that upon the reader, as well as taking us on a trip with two hilarious characters who don't realise quite how much they each need the other.Becca's Books is awarding Drive Me Crazy by the fabulous Portia Macintosh with FIVE SCRUMPTIOUS CUPCAKES! Like I said at the beginning of my review, this author's books are just getting better and better, more enjoyable as each one is published and I cannot wait to see what Portia Macintosh gives her readers next. Hopefully more sassy heroines, and definitely more gorgeously geeky heroes!

She didn’t go to uni, instead staying at home, getting a job and caring for them. After first her un and then her Dad died, she was alone. Her boss, Will Starr, started comforting her and saying he loved her. she was naive enough to be taken in by his “my wife doesn’t understand me” lies.Danny Wright is the new IT guy. He asks Candice out the first day he see her, which is also his first day in the job. Will is jealous but knows he’s planning spending a week together with Candice touring other factories in the Starr company. The best laid plans, however, don’t always work out and Will receives a phone call that has him cancelling their tour. He suggests that Candice go with someone else so she chooses to go with Danny. having made her choice will she live to rejoice or regret it?What a lying deceitful, throttle worthy boss Will Starr was! I really hated him and his attitude to female staff, just as the author intended. Danny, however, was a dream male - straight talking, caring, honest and handsome, too. I enjoyed how he encourages Candy to ditch the false persona she’s created to appease Will and to be proud of herself rather than trying to change into someone she really isn’t. I don’t particularly appreciate some of the language used but it seemed appropriate in context and wasn’t used to upset or in an inappropriate manner.After a start where you feel like trying to alert Candice to how she’s being used whilst also ensuring Will can never abuse his post in the company to enable him to manipulate and sexually use his female employees like this again. I actually hope it acts as a wake up call for any young ladies being manipulated in a similar manner by their sleazy boss or married boyfriend. I loved Danny. He’a a great character, encouraging Candy to be herself and giving her the courage and support to do so. This is a great read I highly recommend!Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley too,for letting me read an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
