<p>Hello and welcome to Secure The Insecure presented by Johnny Seifert.</p><br><p>In this weeks episode author Helly Acton talks about her new novel The Couple. Millie is a perfectionist. She's happy, she's successful and, with a great support network of friends and family (and a very grumpy cat), she's never lonely. She loves working at a big tech firm and is on track be promoted to her dream role. The last thing she needs is romance messing up her perfectly organised world.</p><p>Besides, normal people just don't have romantic relationships. Everyone knows that being in a couple is a bit...well, odd. You know, like having a pet snake or referring to yourself in the third person. Why rely on another person for your own happiness? Why risk the humiliation of unrequited love or the agony of a break-up? No, Millie is more than happy with her conventional single life.</p><p>So, when Millie lands a new project at work, launching a pill that prevents you falling in love, it seems like the opportunity of a lifetime. That is, until she starts working with Ben. He's charming and funny, and Millie feels an instant connection to him.</p><p>Will Millie sacrifice everything she believes in for love?</p><br><p>If you enjoy the episode please leave a five star rating and a review.</p><br><p>If you would like to contact me on social media I am @johnnyseifert @securetheinsecurepodcast</p><br /><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> See <a style='color:grey;' target='_blank' rel='noopener noreferrer' href='https://acast.com/privacy'>acast.com/privacy</a> for privacy and opt-out information.</p>
