What They're Saying

Critics Review

I drew back in some alarm when told on its jacket that Score! was wildly funny, unashamedly romantic, terrifyingly creepy. I pressed bravely on nonetheless, and found with surprise that Score! is indeed all these things and even more – John Bayley * Spectator *
Absolutely wonderful, such fun and so busy and gossipy – Penny Vincenzi
Has all the usual Cooper ingredients, fantastically attractive male and female characters, lots of extra-marital affairs and dollops of good humour, but there is a difference in this novel as it is also a murder mystery – Linda Roberts * Daily Mail *
Romance, glamour, seismic sex and delightful comedy… this book is a slice of heaven: pure, blissful escapism – Kate Saunders * New Statesman *
A deliciously funny, lusty, riproaring read with the added dimension of suspense and murder – Sally Feldman * Good Housekeeping *
