From the world of Jilly Cooper comes an Audible Original multi-cast drama based on the short story A PRESSING ENGAGEMENT, starring Rhea Norwood and Corey Mylchreest.

Adapted by Dare Aiyegbayo. Produced in collaboration with the Estate of Jilly Cooper, Felicity Blunt and Happy Prince, the team behind the hit Disney+ show RIVALS.

London, 1978. Hester is stuck; trapped in the same secretarial job for years while her older boyfriend, Julian, refuses to commit. When she’s offered a role working with an exciting film producer, she sees a chance for everything to change. But leaving means breaking her boss’s heart. Then she has a brainwave: tell him she’s leaving to get married. Without thinking, she says her childhood friend Nico is her fiancé. One problem — he knows nothing about it. Soon the two of them are putting on the performance of a lifetime for colleagues, friends, and eventually family. But as the lie spirals out of control, Hester and Nico grow closer, and she starts to wonder: does she really want this engagement to be fake after all?

Starring Rhea Norwood (Heartstopper), Corey Mylchreest (Bridgerton), Hannah Waddingham (Ted Lasso), Richard Ayoade (The IT Crowd), Vivian Oparah (Rye Lane) and Bessie Carter (Bridgerton).
