I do love Alison Hammond. She is warm and witty so I knew her book would be the same. Her characters are extremely true to life, and I suspect they are based on people that she knows. It’s a fun book about friendships, family, heartbreak, and heart-make.

Madison thinks she has the perfect life. A TV heartthrob, handsome husband, 2 gorgeous children, a bunch of close-knit friends and a wonderful house – and as an interior designer it is just as she wants it. The only thing that isn’t perfect is a job that she hates. When her husband suddenly tells her that he needs some space, and moves out to stay with a cousin, Madison’s world is turned upside down. Can Madison discover her own worth, and change her life for the better or will she fold under the pressure? Sometimes new friends can come into your life at the right time and improve your life for the better.

I really enjoyed this book. It was a quick read, and I polished off in just over a day. It’s warm, witty and bubbly -just like Alison herself.

this book did not disappoint. it was a feel good, wrap yourself in a warm blanket. I loved the characters and there development.

this was a joyful read.

I was delighted to have my wish granted to read this book. It didn’t disappoint, a feel good, wrap yourself in a warm blanket story. I liked the characters and how they developed and it runs with a myriad of human emotion. A joy to read.

I loved this! I immediately really liked Madison and was so angry on her behalf at how Richard was treating her. I thought it was easy to read and covered so much- friendship, motherhood, the identity crisis that often comes with regard to work/career when things have taken a back seat for a while. I could identify with a lot of it. There was also some glamour, with Mellow, and I really enjoyed the references to black British culture too. A great read and I’ll definitely be recommending it.
