Winner of Foreword Reviews Indie Bronze for General Adult Fiction 2017
A wonderful, witty treat of a novel: cutting and clever, and yet so very romantic, as though P.G. Wodehouse had satirized life in the suburbs.’ Liane Moriarty
Laugh-out-loud funny, yet with real emotion at its core, this is a sexy-smart rom-com about love and marriage.’ Australian Women’s Weekly
[A] clever and moving comedy about love and marriage Hilarious and romantic.’ Who Weekly
This is a comedy about love and marriage. Specifically, the marriages of Caroline and Henry, and Lesley and Craig, and Janice and Alec.
Except that Henry’s not going to be with Caroline for much longer now Martha’s on the scene and to be truthful Lesley and Craig have a few trust issues that may not prove 100% resolvable. And Janice divorced Alec two years ago although that didn’t have anything to do with falling out of love with him, quite the reverse actually, so it’s awkward when he turns up unexpectedly and finds Janice and Craig naked in Caroline’s bedroom.
But all relationships have their ups and downs, don’t they?
A brilliant, heartbreaking, hilarious novel.
