'Loulou Landers is about to turn forty-nine and she's feeling seriously overlooked. She hasn't had a relationship for twenty years, her 21-year-old daughter Theo is giving her the cold shoulder, and is that really a bunion making it so painful to walk, or is Christian Louboutin losing his touch? Theo can't see what her mum is so hung up about. It's only another birthday.
And she has more important things to think about- mainly herself. For not only is Loulou permanently single, but so is Theo - despite her legendary good looks. But over the course of a summer, everything changes. Two men set out to get both women back in the love game. The only problem is that both mother and daughter keep their burgeoning romances secret from each other. Because, in each case, there's a thirty-year age difference. And that's only one of the issues.' (Publisher's blurb)

Author's note: This book is set in the lovely London 'village' of Primrose Hill, in a house around the corner from where I used to live. I still have such a sense of ownership of the neighbourhood that I've allowed myself free licence with the architecture, setting my heroine's shop in a row of houses at the eastern end of Regent's Park Rod, which is strictly residential. I wanted her to have a terrace. I gave her one.
