  Shortlisted for the Dorchester Literary Festival Award 2018. Meet Briony Denley...under-appreciated wife, underwhelmed mother, and unchallenged mojito drinker. A move to a new house and an extended lull in her sex life with her workaholic husband leaves Briony Denley pondering new possibilities for her life.Not content with 'making her own sunshine' thanks to the freebies procured by PR pal, Kate, who has just bagged a sex toy account, Briony is left wondering if her charming new neighbour, Cosmo, might possibly have a (not so) soft spot for her. However, when her mother-in-law's increasingly eccentric behaviour starts verging on the deviant; childhood friend Melissa suddenly announces her marriage to handbag designer Dan; 'mum' friend, Lucy, starts pandering her pooch to absurd proportions, and sexagenarians start indulging in highly questionable shenanigans, the ordinarily extraordinary just becomes another day in Briony's life. Candid, witty, and unashamedly tongue in cheek; 'The Ordinarily Extraordinary Life of Briony' is an addictive feel-good read of first world problems in modern day life.
