One mum is leaving it all behind for the adventure of a lifetime…
Lorraine Anderson was meant to be making a Sunday roast, not swanning off to Thailand, backpack in hand! But when she finds her husband and her best friend in bed together there’s only one thing to do – grab her passport and never look back!
Now, with each mile travelled Lori sheds the woman she once was and finds the woman she was always meant to be. A woman of passion and spirit who deserves to explore the great unknown…and to indulge in the temptation she encounters along the way!
The second I saw the initial announcements for this book I knew I had to read it. I love anything that has a travel angle to it, and this is an author that has been on my radar for a while but that i haven't actually read before.
And my excitement was truly justified, what an exotic story I have just read, of a woman who on discovering her husband is cheating on her with her best friend, goes straight to Gatwick airport and books a flight to the further away place she can find - Thailand.
With nothing more than a backpack and a few items of clothing and products bought at the airport, she sets off on an exciting adventure.
I felt as though I was alongside Lorri on every step of her journey, and the descriptions of the locations in Thailand really transported you placed.
There are many other travellers we are introduced to along the way, and I really did enjoy the direction her trip took her.
Definitely a top summer holiday read, in fact i read it poolside in about 2 hours, not wanting to move even when it started to get chillier, as I had to see what happened. Loved every moment of this book and I am looking forward to reading more from the author in the future.
Thank you to Netgalley and Harper Impulse for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
