They have precisely nothing in common except perhaps their little boy Ivo. Not that Harry pays him much attention, preferring to spend his time with his braying upper class friends • But the night that Harry drunkenly does something unspeakable, Rosie decides he's got to go. In between fantasizing how she might bump him off, she takes the much more practical step of divorcing this blight on her and Ivo's lives • However, when reality catches up with her darkest fantasies, Rosie realizes, at long last, that it is time she took charge of her life

Laugh out loud with the gorgeously romantic rural comedy from the bestselling author of A Cornish Summer • Polly is content and settled in married life, until one comment shakes everything up • 'You've gone all fat and complacent because you've got your man, haven't you?' • Polly Penhalligan is outraged at the suggestion that since getting married to Nick and settling into their beautiful manor farmhouse in Cornwall she has let herself go. But watching a lot of telly and gorging on biscuits, not getting dressed until lunchtime and waiting for pregnancy to strike are not the signs of someone living an active and fulfilled life • So Polly does something rash • She allows her home to be used as a location for a TV advert. Having a glamorous film crew around will certainly put a bomb under the idyllic, rural life
