Cerys Williams has left her village in the Welsh Valleys for art college in London and the spare room in glamorous Auntie Wyns flat. Cerys knows there's more out there for her in the world; it's the year 2000, and she definitely doesn't have to just get married and have babies and wear beige and cook stews for the rest of her life, even if Mam thinks she should.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut Cerys' London is not glossy, cool, or sophisticated, despite what Adept, her favorite magazine, has told her. It's lonely, overwhelming, and confusing. Until, that is, she meets him.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe prequel to Toxic.
