Media Reviews
Rural Bliss is better than a weekend in the country. Read this and you won't stop smiling. * Meera Syal *
A book from which the sweetest dreams will come. * Dorothy Rowe *
A blissfully witty romantic romp. * Sue Townsend *
Quirky and totally original. * Katie Fforde *
Wakefield is good on the minutiae of waiting for a man to call, female bids to stem the ravages of time and the smugness of the happily married woman. Well written * Marie Claire *
Warm, astute and deeply satisfying * Bookseller *
Dry, wry and laugh-out-loud funny * Choice *
Very funny * Heat *
Escapist fun * Woman's Own *
Sparkling comedy romance * Hello! *
