About this listen

The laugh-out-loud, TOP 100 bestseller!

Tess Simpson needs a break!

No one appreciates her at home. No one appreciates her at work. And now her dog has died. She’s had enough!

Maybe what she really needs is a break from hopeless husband, Dave, the ungrateful ‘kidults’ and the lacklustre job.

River Romero needs a break!

She’s had success in the past, but screenwriting is a tough career in a tough town and her next script has got to fly or River’s dream career is over.

The swap!

Everything about River’s L.A. life sounds exciting to Tess, from the condo with a pool, to the Hollywood glitz.

Everything about Tess’s English country life sounds so calming to River, from the wisteria over the front door to the peaceful bedroom.

Both women want their lives to change, but real life isn’t like the movies.

And what if getting away from it all isn’t all it’s cracked up to be?

A laugh-out-loud, emotional listen, perfect for fans of Fiona Gibson, Tracy Bloom and Sophie Ranald!

I thought this would just be light and fluffy, a palate cleanser between heavier stuff. It was easy to listen to, well written, good story and humour. It also dealt with serious relationship and personal issue, culminating in the outcome you hope for.

Wow! Not what I expected

Enjoyed this story based both at home and abroad and as someone who likes to travel in the US and in LA in particular I really enjoyed it.

As someone who has recently married it is a little concerning about the state of 20 year marriages!

Narrators had many parts to play and differentiated the voices well, I felt.

Would recommend. An easy listen.

Enjoyed this transatlantic story

This book seemed like it was going to be quite boring, but so well worth the wait. I grew to love it. A Senior Accountant Mother gets to the stage in life when the children are off hand and all that is left is her husband. All her energy has been into sorting out the house and the children. She takes a sabbatical and plans a holiday for them all to spend time with her family. It does not go to plan and all seems lost.

There is one hitch a larger than life American Author is due to stay at their home while they go on their travels. With a lot of persuasion she swaps with the author. I will leave it there.

This book is about Tess discovering who she is as a person and what she can achieve on her own and realise her worth and she has to face if there is anything left in her marriage.
