I read on the fabulous Lucy Diamond's website that she has just finished her new book, which will be out in June of next year. It is provisionally called 'Sweet Temptation', and sounds great!
Maddie’s getting it from all sides. Her bitchy new boss at the radio station humiliates her live on air about her figure, her glamour-puss mum keeps dropping not-so-subtle hints that Maddie should lose weight (like booking her in for a gym induction) and her kids are embarrassed to be seen with her after the disastrous Mums’ race at their school sports day turns her into a laughing stock. Something’s got to change…
Maddie joins the local weight-watching group expecting more humiliation but instead finds two unlikely allies – bitter divorcee Lauren who, despite running a dating agency, has signed off romance for ever (or so she thinks) and shy Jess, the beautician, who’s desperate to fit into a size 10 wedding dress for her Big Day. This is a novel about love, friendship and chocolate cake… and trying to resist temptation…
I'm so looking forward to this, especially after reading my first Lucy Diamond novel recently, which was brill.
I hope there will be a makeover!
