What to expect

An uplifting, fun-filled read about golden girls behaving badly, from NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER Maddie Please

'A glorious romp that readers will adore. Maddie's warmth and humour will put a smile on your face' Judy Leigh

Sisters Kitty and Jenny haven’t spoken since a very disappointing Carvery lunch. Kitty, sixty-two, thinks Jenny is turning grey. Jenny, sixty-six, thinks Kitty needs to grow up!

So when both sisters inherit a farmhouse in rural France, it gives them the perfect chance to heal the rift between them. Except the farmhouse is a wreck, the garden is terrorized by a flock of chickens, not to mention a donkey with a serious flatulence problem!

Kitty is determined to enjoy herself, especially when she meets gorgeous French builder, Leo. Ooh la – la! And Jenny finds the fully stocked wine cellar helps enormously with missing horrible husband Paul – hic!

And as the two sisters begin to repair their fragile friendship, they discover that being bad is actually very good for the soul.

Escape to the French countryside for a laugh-out-loud feel-good adventure with the #1 bestselling author of The Old Ducks' Club

An uplifting and hilarious story about living life to the full and always always having fun! Perfect for fans of Judy Leigh and Dee Macdonald
