Media Reviews
Lurid indeed. Juliet (who works in food PR) is single and fed up. Meeting men is not the problem - there have been plenty; so many, in fact, that the different types seem to be repeating on her like spring onions. Where's the variety? Maybe best friend Gill has got it right; the comfort and security of marriage seem rather appealing after all, but Gill has problems of her own. She can't wait to hear all the juicy details of Juliet's sex life, as she is lacking one herself. Cue Gillian's fling with another man. But isn't the grass always greener on the other side? So what with Juliet's one night stands and Gillian's affair, not to mention dominatrix Mel who leads Juliet astray by taking her to fetish parties - this is one saucy novel. Very cheeky and witty - but honest.
