About this listen

 Mia has her life in order. She is a grown up and enjoys a grown up's relationship with Pete. Not passionate or spontaneous, but solid. She knows he is 'the one'. But then she sees a text message on Pete's phone that throws her world into a spin. It is more than friendly, signed off with a kiss, and Mia has never heard of the sender, Liz. With her carefully mapped out life sliding out of control Mia will discover a side to herself she never knew existed, as she formulates a plan to win her happy ending. Because all's fair in love and war – isn't it?©2008 Lucy Dawson (P)2019 Bolinda Publishing Family Life Fiction Genre Fiction Psychological Romance Romantic Suspense Thriller & Suspense Women's Fiction Suspense Exciting

I enjoyed this book all the way up to the very last line...and the ending was such a disappointment...it just went flat!
Great performance by Georgia Maguire, as always.

disappointing ending

Got dissapointed at the ending. It gave a feeling of that author got bored and just ended it- not knowing how to continue it. The husband was getting off the hook.

A odd ending

Ending was very disappointing, A bit confusing in last chapter, I understood what was happening but I didn't get it, did he really have a full blown affair with Liz or not, according to him he didn't, according to her he did. I couldn't have not had it out with him at the off when she first knew he was seeing someone, her plans nearly backfired on her near ending.
I did enjoy it until near the end, it disappointed me greatly.
I couldn't recommend.

not anyone imparticular.

This isn’t my usual type of book, I bought it in a 2 for 1 offer and I’m more crime and thrillers normally, but I really enjoyed it. It made me laugh out loud at times but I also felt the main character’s pain. I thought it well written and extremely well read, the narrator’s dead pan delivery was perfect for the funny parts. I particularly enjoyed the restaurant scenario, I’m sure it’s one most women will recognise!

Laugh Out Loud Funny And Very Sad

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, it was so intriguing!! It kept my interest throughout. Mia's plan was so clever and devious, she was almost as bad as the character, Villanelle in Killing Eve!! Some of it was quite comical.
The twist in the tale was unexpected.
I just thought that the ending was a bit strange and it really needed an extra chapter or an epilogue.
Great book though and I would recommend it. Great narration too, but I do agree that some of the editing was bad. Whenever the narrator said 'Pete', it somehow sounded like 'EET'' A lot of her words seemed to be cut off at the beginning of the word - it was strange but didn't put me off the book.
RECOMMENDED.

Brilliant Book but strange ending???
