Just when you thought you had it all worked out …

Best friends Lisa and Felicity think  – maybe, just maybe – they finally have everything sorted out in their lives.

Lisa is in a happy relationship with her old flame, and busy mum Felicity has managed to reignite the passion with her husband, Pete after a romantic getaway.

But when Lisa walks in on a half-naked woman in her boyfriend’s flat and Felicity is left reeling from a shocking discovery, it becomes clear that life is nothing but full of surprises …

Favorite Quotes:

 

Isn’t mentioning your mother and no hassle in the same sentence an oxymoron or something?

 

It’s not an easy thing to just bring up, though, is it? “By the way, that woman you just found naked in my flat, I delivered her son.” Telling your other half you’ve seen someone else’s foof is never an easy conversation.

 

‘Then we’re calling it Thor.’ ‘What?’ Felicity sat up and looked at Pete’s excited face. ‘Are you mad? Why?’ ‘Because he’s got superpowers. We thought we’d killed them all off… My swimmers, but no, Thor there’ –Pete gestured to Felicity’s stomach – ‘he’s made it through, against the odds.’ ‘Wouldn’t that make him Aquaman?’

 

‘Shut up, you daft cow. I’m not offended.’ ‘You’re the second person to call me daft this week.’ ‘Hmm, might be something in that, then.’

 

Yes, I just wondered, when a baby is born, does some air … no, wait … how did the baby get in your tummy?… Did you eat it?

 

Congratulations my lovelies, and when the days feel long remember the years are all too short, treasure every moment with your precious baby!

 

My Review:

 

I snickered and smirked my way through this cleverly crafted, delightfully amusing, and wittily written tale. This wily author is a master at misdirection; she has used my cynical nature against me and fooled me yet again! I am hoping she will repeatedly succeed at pulling off this miraculous and monumental feat with many more deftly penned sequels featuring these endearing and irresistible characters.
