About this listen

Humiliated, dumped, and fired; this has been Ivy Efferson’s week so far. With only six weeks until their wedding, fiancé, Will has called things off. While all her friends were travelling the world and climbing the career ladder, all Ivy dreamed about was getting married and having a family of her own.

With no partner, job, or home, Ivy is desperate to escape her shame and break free from her disapproving mother and perfect sister. Leaving Edinburgh behind, she heads for Richmond. The leafy, Surrey suburb has always been her source of comfort and solace; Granddad’s jasmine scented garden, soothing walks by the riverside and the chance to rediscover her passion for art.

Most importantly, Ivy has made the decision that she will rely on no man to give her the child she craves. She plans to go it alone and have an IVF baby.

After all, if things can go wrong with Will after eight years, why should she take a chance on someone new?

What a wonderful story! I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the audio version of this story. This story evoked so many emotions! I was killing myself laughing at some parts and crying at others. I loved the main character, Ivy, and was rooting for her the whole way through. I loved the relationship that she had with her grandfather. Very sweet. So many small, funny aspects, for example ‘the bitchelour pad’I thought the narrator was fantastic! Love listening to a Scottish narrator and she portrayed the English and Irish accents brilliantly. Really brought the story to life. This audio book would definitely rate as one of my top ten, and I haven’t listened to loads! I will definitely look out for more from this author! 👍🏻☺️

Fantastic story

All Ivy wanted to do was get married to Will, her partner of 8 years, and have a family. Of course that didn't happen and after being dumped almost at the alter we follow Ivy through the highs and lows over the next few years.
Funny but very sad in parts.
Great narration but overall the story was fairly predictive.
Nice listen and perhaps would suit a younger ear than mine.
