Produktbeschreibung

'I often promised myself late at night that I'd definitely stop reading at the end of the chapter, only to find I was completely unable to do so!' Reader review

One dinner table. An unlikely group of guests. A recipe for disaster?

Lucy's infamous dinner parties were always the talk of the town, but after her husband's death, they've become few and far between. When she gets engaged to her new fiancé, Mike, she decides what better way to introduce him to her friends than by reinstating their supper club.

But a lot has changed in the last six years.

Lucy's best friend, Maggie, must face sitting at the dinner table with her husband's new model girlfriend in tow.

Now a mother, so much of Chrissie's life revolves around changing nappies and mindless baby TV that she worries if she'll still be good company.

The only single one of the group, Jenny is not interested in finding a man and wishes her older sister would stop trying to set her up with the handsome new neighbour.

Perhaps Lucy has bitten off more than she can chew with these dinner parties, but what's a little wine among old friends anyway?

A hilariously entertaining and engaging read that is perfect for fans of Fiona Gibson, Carmen Reid and Tracy Bloom.

Autorenporträt

Sophie King always wanted to write which is just as well, since she can't do maths. After reading English at university, she trained as a journalist and went on to work in the fashion world where she interviewed celebrities such as Zandra Rhodes and the Emanuels who designed Diana's dress.

However, she'd always wanted to write novels, so she started writing funny romances while her children were asleep. This didn't always work. One day, the youngest managed to switch off her computer and all Sophie's work was lost. That child is now a writer himself. In fact, they all are. Tales like these (and more) have helped to inspire her stories.

Janey Fraser also writes women's fiction novels under the pen name of Sophie King.
