They lock eyes and for a fraction of a second, she feels something she's never felt before. She starts by reading up about his life in Canada and his work as an actor. Then she watches every interview with him online. It isn't long before she's joined Ted's fan site online where her and the `Tedettes' stalk his every move. When Ted gets a new celebrity girlfriend, Esther decides that things have gone far enough. She leaves her husband, takes all their savings, and buys a one-way ticket to Canada. After all, Ted might not know it yet, but they are meant to be together - he just needs a little bit of persuading... ***Readers love Esther is Now Following You!***'I have nothing to say other than I absolutely devoured this book and loved it!!!!'
