About this ebook

Can you live on love alone?

Willow Carruthers – British Oscar winner, style icon and mother of three – is facing a crisis: she’s broke, discovery of her partner’s infidelity has left her a single mother and, if the banks have their way, she’s about to be homeless.

Meanwhile, Kitty – nanny to Willow’s children – is desperate to keep her job and knows just the place they can retreat to: her crumbling ancestral home in the Bristol countryside, Middlemist House.

To both women in their hour of need, the idea of leaving LA seems brilliant in theory. That is, until Kitty’s brother Merritt returns home unannounced...

From London to L.A, The Perfect Retreat is pure escapism – full of sex, scandal and intrigue.

Couldn't put this book down, escapism at its best! Loved the characters and if a book can make you laugh and bring tears to your eyes it's worth the 5 stars!

Great book, couldn't put it down. Loved that it was from different people's views but not confusing. Gutted when it finished!
