The gloriously funny new novel about living life to the full, whatever your age, from the author of A Grand Old Time.
55-year-old Georgie Turner doesn’t need a new man. Her daughter, aunt and sister are the most important people in her life (and the most infuriating). But it seems the older they get, the further apart they drift.
Georgie’s never been a fan of her sister Bonnie’s husband, so when she learns her brother-in-law has been up to no good, Georgie sees an opportunity to bring the women of her family back together. Along with her 21-year-old daughter and 80-year-old aunt, she packs Bonnie into the back of her car and they leave Liverpool to hide out on the coast of Sussex. With the help of some sun, sea and bottle or two of prosecco, this will be an adventure they’ll never forget.
But could the right man find Georgie while she’s stopping the wrong man finding her sister?
A gorgeously fun and uplifting novel, perfect for fans of The 100 Year Old Man and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.
MY REVIEW:
I absolutely adored this book. I was so excited when I saw that Judy Leigh had a new book out. I loved her last one so much that I bought a copy for my mum. She loved it too!
This one is slightly different in tone. Still with the author’s wonderful humour and fabulous characters, there’s a bit more tension and drama in this book.
Georgie has taken her aunt, who she calls Nan, and her sister and her daughter, away on a bit of a last minute adventure as they try to get away from Bonnie’s rather dodgy husband and one of his unpleasant “business associates”.
There’s so much humour in this book, but there is tension also, as the women are in danger. It’s a perfect mix of humour, romance and suspense, with wonderfully real characters. So enjoyable.
MY RATING: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
