"Sometimes when you think it's over, it's only just begun...
Gemma Garvey's marriage has been over for ages. It was Gemma's choice to go it alone with two kids, rather than pretend the marriage to career-obsessed David was working.
So why is she so upset when he marries that bimbo bitch Orla O'Neill?
Is it that Orla's nearer in age to Gemma's teenage daughter than to herself? That she's tall, thin and gorgeous whilst Gemma, at 35, sometimes feels more like 55? And that David's starting a new life with someone else whilst she's trundling towards middle age alone?
But for Orla being wife number two isn't all she imagined, always aware of how Gemma runs a house, looks after her kids and goes out to work whilst she can't even cook dinner without setting the kitchen on fire.
To David, both have been wives and he's loved them both. And when he married Orla he hadn't envisaged any problems.
But the trouble has scarcely started..."
Picked this book up today at a charity shop in Kilburn and I really look forward to reading this. I throroughly enjoyed the other books I read by Sheila O'Flanagan (and one of them has even BookCrossed its way through Russia to China and to the Mount Everest and Hong Kong, how cool is that? Click here to see its journal). Anyway, this one's going on my Mount TBR!

I really enjoyed this book and read it while I was on holiday in Korea. It's a typical Sheila O'Flanagan novel and it didn't disappoint me one bit - a very easy read.
This book will be passed along again shortly.
