This book is the only in-depth ethnographic study of British charter tourists. It is based on several months of participant observation of British charter tourists on holiday in Palmanova and Magaluf on the Mediterranean Island of Mallorca. With a focus on space, the body, and food and drink practices, the book explores the experiential nature of touristic practice which provides insight into constructions, understandings and knowledge of the self in relation to national, regional, class, and gender identities. These issues in turn highlight elements of power and control which are mainly articulated through the attempts to manipulate tourists' consumption practices by the mediators of tourists' experiences.

But the longer we spend weeding out the duds, the more I appreciate the woman in front of me. Too bad Blaire doesn’t fit the requirements for a Warren bride. And one way or another, this New Year’s Eve, I’ll be kissing my wife at the stroke of midnight. BLAIRE Helping my hot boss find a bride isn’t really part of my job description.

But Archie needs my help, and I’m hopeless to deny him when he flashes me that panty-melting grin and sings my praises. He says I’m invaluable. As an employee...or more? Because with every moment we spend together planning his loveless New Year’s Eve wedding, my heart inches closer to falling in love with him. Holiday miracles are the things of fairy tales, but this New Year’s Eve, one might be found in the place they least expect it.
