Thoroughly recommend this book. I always read Catherine Alliott's books as they are published and have never been disappointed.

It did take me a few chapters to get in to this story as I did not like the main character's children at all. I longed to be able to jump into the pages and give them all a good telling off. They did however grow on me as the story developed. This book had many 'laugh out loud' moments and many moments where I wanted to be able to 'speak' to the main character as she seemed to jump from one disaster to another - always a good sign when a reader feels so involved with the characters and plot of a book. Great entertainment.

This book was a little hard to get into
as it was rather
confusing for me at the beginning. It was quite a steady read with a twist to it. This is the first book I have read by Catherine Alliott and I would class it as an easy read, perfect to take on holiday

About Last Night . . .

Book Review: ♥ ♥ ♥
Molly swapped her City life in London for the countryside in Herefordshire. Now she is living the dream but not her own. Her Husband David was the one who wanted the farm life, but unfortunately, he is now deceased, and Molly is left living in his memory.

She is given the opportunity to trade the country back to the city. This book is about getting a second chance and being brave enough to take it.


I liked this book however it was slow paced.
3 Stars out of 5.

I really enjoyed this ARC (thank you net galley) in the same way I adore Bridget Jones. The book manages to be entertaining, but touch on serious subjects such as fraud, marital infidelity and grief.

Molly is a great character. She's flawed and a little gullible, but her heart is in the right place. She is trying to do the best for her children and rural small holding following the death of her husband 5 years earlier, but is struggling. When an escape in the form of an unexpected windfall lands in her lap she can't help but imagine a life for herself back in the glitz and glamour of London.

There are some laugh out loud moments as Molly tries to deal with the unexpected problem of someone living in the house she has inherited. Some really touching moments as Molly attempts to keep up with the glamorous women she seems to be surrounded by as she dips her toes back into the dating scene.

Really good, escapist fun with a really feel good ending. I'm smiling just thinking about it actually.

I would love to see this made into a film or tv series.
