Pearson was sued by Miramax for non-delivery of a second novel, "I Think I Love You", for which she received a US$700,000 advance in 2003. Delivery was due in 2005: it was published in 2010. The novel was about a teenager's passion for David Cassidy in the 1970s and the man writing the so-called replies from David Cassidy to the teenage fans, who meet up 20 years later after marriage, divorce, and children. Her newspaper, "The Telegraph", praised the novel for its warmth and sincerity; "The Guardian" declared it an "unrealistic and sappy romance".
