De: Judy Leigh

From MILLION COPY BESTSELLING author of Five French Hens and The Old Girls' Network comes a story of two sisters in their golden years embarking on the holiday of a lifetime, to find love, friendship and new adventures.

Molly’s seventieth birthday comes as a shock. The woman in the mirror looks every day of those seventy years, but inside Molly feels she still has so much more living left to do. Widowed and living alone with her cat, Molly fears she is slipping into a cliché of old age.

When Molly’s sister Nell appears on her doorstep, distraught that her husband of more than forty years, Phil, has left her for a younger lover, the women decide to seize the day. By the morning, flights are booked, bags are packed, and they're off to Spain.

The sun, the sea, the new friends and the freedom are just the tonic for broken hearts and flagging souls. But even Spain isn’t enough to revive Molly’s spirit so she decides to head off for a solo journey to continue to chase the sun and to chase happiness. Will she find what she’s looking for in a new country, or will she discover that true contentment can’t be found on a map? But it might just be found in a new flame...

Judy Leigh is back, with her trademark spirit of joie de vivre, fun, warmth and timeless lessons in how to live. Perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber and Robyn Carr.

Enjoyable easy listen

I enjoy Judy Leighs’ light hearted simple stories of older people being adventurous! I love the settings of villages in the UK and small towns elsewhere.

Good

Very lighted hearted read enjoyable. I loved Molly and the writers description in book helped to visualize the settings

Another great read

Enjoy all of Judy's books. So relatable for those of us that are over 60. The narration was excellent.

Another Humor Filled Romance

Well done, Phyllida Nash, you made Judy's book come alive. Not many romances for the 60+ set out there, keep them coming ladies! :0)

Fun in the Sun

This was.a goof novel.for.a.dull.weekend. It.was.both poignant and.funny . Life is always a quandary for those who want to.look.at.it.that.way and sometimes you need to just.grab.it. This is a work.for.when grabbing is the only option.

it's ok

I have enjoyed all of Judy's books but this one I struggled with. It just did not flow well. The reader is great in fact I would listen to others she has.

adventure

character development was slow but it was made up for in the travel adventures of the characters.

Fun and recognizable characters

For widows like me who are getting older it is rare to find a heroine that is relatable and can make you laugh out loud. Learning to live as a single for the first time at age 60 comes with a lot of life decisions and is often one step forward and one step back and I'm glad that's included in this book. It is inspiring to think that adventure still awaits.

Loved!

I loved this light fun story of aging folks having adventures. I will continue to read Judy Leigh .

If you can stay awake…

It took me a long time to finish this one. It’s not a bad story, but it’s also not a well-told one. The events of the book are pretty flat. Dare I say it - it’s kinda boring. You’re just watching someone go through day to day life, with no variance. Plus it does that pet peeve of mine - people who would rather have drama than love in their lives. So, when she starts with the, “I know you love me but I just cannot be with you! It’s too hard!” I get annoyed. Take the love, lady, it doesn’t happen for everyone.
