The book opens as Magnus is going through his morning routine – pleased to discover that last night’s bed partner has had the good manners to take himself off – and answers the door only to discover said bedmate clearly hadn’t got the message that the night before was a one off. He’s the sort of man who commands attention whether he’s in a courtroom or a dining room he’s attractive, intelligent and supremely confident, likes his life ‘just so’, his men young and the sex casual. Magnus Carlsen QC is one of the most successful barristers in the country – and is well aware of that fact modesty isn’t one of his defining qualities. It’s well-written, warm, funny and sexy, boasting two intensely likeable leads with terrific chemistry, plenty of her trademark snark – and a real punch in the feels towards the end. Beautifully Unexpected is typical Lily Morton – and I mean that in a good way.
