'I've loved all of Maddie Please's books but this is my favourite so far - superb characters and a warm, wonderful story. Bravo!' Judy Leigh

Recently retired, Denny Lambert is finding life just a little bit…well, dull. So when her stepsister Juliette announces she’s getting married – again! – and invites Denny on a hen do with the Old Ducks, Denny really can’t say no.

Denny knows something about the Old Ducks and their wild exploits, but she’s just glad to be somewhere hot and sunny and away from her grey life back in the UK. She’s definitely not going to be pulled into any Old Duck mayhem….

But when they arrive at their beautiful Mallorcan villa, Denny is in for a shock. Because right next door is the man who once broke her heart – Bruno Browning. Now with the Old Ducks and an old flame to contend with, Denny’s life suddenly feels anything but dull!

But if she’s learnt one thing from her time with the Old Ducks it’s that life is for living…and that’s exactly what Denny is finally going to do!

Because it's never too late for even the newest Old Duck to learn new tricks...

An uplifting and hilarious story about living life to the full and always, always having fun! Perfect for fans of Judy Leigh and Dee Macdonald

Disappointed

I was excited to listen to this after enjoying the first book so much but sorry to say it fell flat. The first book had me laughing out loud quite a few times but this time I laughed maybe once. It was the same reader but the voices weren't as good as before and had lost their luster. I had to speed it up just to get through it.

Such a beautiful read

I love this book and these characters. It’s time to start working on creating my own Old Ducks Club.

The wonderful Ducks.

I enjoyed this wonderful story. The audio was great and I know everyone enjoyed listening to it.

Just the best!

Witty, heartwarming, poignant, story of friendship, forgiveness, and taking chances. Quote from the book: “Fear is temporary, regret is forever.”

Refreshing, funny, romantic, and inspiring

I loved the second book as much as the first, I look forward to the others! Thank you for writing, such a fun, friendship, romantic, inspiring, realistic book for women of maturity that we can relate to & yet younger can appreciate as much as us. I’ve already recommended your books to several of my friends.

As good as the first book, but more profound.

This book did not have as many laugh out loud moments as the first in the series. But it was just as enjoyable. The characters were like my old friends. There was some pretty funny stuff that happened and some quote-worthy dialog. I actually did a lot of thinking about my past as I read (you know I mean :"listened") about the old ducks pondering their pasts. There was some real wisdom in the book as well. This book can be read as light humorous fiction or taken a bit more meaningfully, if you desire. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

One reviewer said she did not like this compared to the first book. I almost didn't get the book because of that. But I am so glad I got it. I loved it!

A little disappointing

I loved the first book, Old Ducks’ Club, and would highly recommend that one. I was really looking forward to this book but it lacked the character’s personalities, great storyline, and location descriptions that the first one offered.
