HER HOT FLUSHES MUST BE THE PERI-MENOPAUSE. THEY SURELY COULDN'T BE... LOVE?
Lisa Darling - high-flying TV-exec and twice-divorced mother-of-two - has enough on her plate without having to deal with the handsome New Yorker parachuted in to her best friend's job at work.
She's already navigating life with a grotty teenage son, organising a PTA cheese and wine event, supporting her oldest friend through breast cancer treatment and, since she hit 47, facing a new perimenopause symptom every day. It's no wonder she never has time for Pilates or that DIY panelling she keeps seeing on Instagram (though she'd be the first to admit she'd rather share a bottle of wine with her friends any day).
So when Lisa starts feeling overheated every time she clashes with Zach Russo, she convinces herself it will pass. Maybe her HRT just needs adjusting. Until, that is, she finds herself in a sexy - and seriously ill-advised - clinch with him. And then another...
All of which leads to one question: these long-forgotten feelings couldn't be caused by something else entirely... could they?
Fun, frank and fabulous, Lisa Darling is the romantic comedy heroine we've ALL been waiting for! Perfect for fans of Why Mummy Drinks, Carmen Reid and Serena Terry.
