This is another Jill Mansell classic. The cover is white with a window at the top with a girl sitting at it in a blue dress. There is also a window at the bottom of the page with a dog at it.

Since then it has continued to be a huge hit. In 2003 it became known as "The One Account" and Virgin were no longer involved. From the regular TV ads and poster campaigns most people will have heard of the name but may not know exactly what it is. Web site is ...
