Rural Bliss by Lou Wakefield

Thirty-five-year-old Fran Holdaway has an enviable life. She has finally found a gorgeous and faithful second husband, Paul. She has a job in advertising in London, and commutes from her wonderful country home in Leicestershire, which she has restored with her own hands. Now that she has feathered her nest, it's time to make babies, she thinks.

Allie is her oldest friend. Admitting to thirty-nine (although Fran knows better), she is a metropolitan to her core, living in Bloomsbury, working at the same agency as Fran in Covent Garden, faithful to no man, but voracious lover of many.

Sam is Fran's fresh-faced country friend - the estate agent who sold her the retreat to her Rural Bliss. But Sam has a dark secret. She has been the clandestine mistress of a married man for seven years. Surely it's time to move on?

All three women's lives are turned upside-down in this delicious new comedy romance. 

Light, at times funny, at times a bit over the top sort of chic-lit romance.
