About this ebook

The laugh-out-loud funny book from the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Mum Who Got Her Life Back

A straying husband. A broken heart. And a crazy rescue dog in a town of posh pooches...

When Kerry Tambini upped sticks with her family to a new home on the coast, she couldn’t have been happier. Then husband Rob made the biggest mistake of his life...

Stranded with her children in snooty Shorling, Kerry has plenty on her plate. So how can she say no to the kids' pleas for a dog when they're missing their father dreadfully? Will adopting a wayward hound lead Kerry to a new love – or has she bitten off more than she can chew?

As she steps back into the dating world Kerry must juggle her family, her neurotic dog and try to fit in with the local pedigree mums, making her a true heroine for our time.

Ratings and reviews

Good read with lots of funny things you can relate to. Ending a bit poor though, maybe a second book on this story fiona? Too much unfinished business on these great characters! Would recommend x

Loved the book, my second from Fiona, but the ending sucked for me. Felt there was a huge chunk missing and left me a tad wanting. Otherwise, funny and easy to read. Enjoyed it

Nice easy light reading, exactly what I was looking for 😊 the ending was a bit disappointing though felt like a chapter was missing to end the story
