Publisher's summary

It’s normal to prefer getting a filling at the dentist’s to spending time with your husband, right?

I thought I was sorted on the life front. I was a heart surgeon with a loving partner and two gorgeous little girls. Except my husband’s version of "loving" is lying, cheating, and sleeping his way around London. Which means I definitely deserve a refund.

Unfortunately, moving on isn’t that simple. Just because I know how to operate on a heart doesn’t mean I know how to fix my broken one. Plus, I lost the receipt for him years ago, so I’m definitely getting shortchanged.

But now that I’m single, am I ready to mingle? There are a few minor issues:

  1. The last time I went on a date, double denim was in fashion and my eyebrows were horrendously overplucked.
  2. Men wear stupidly skinny jeans now.
  3. I don’t know how to use dating apps, but at least I don’t have to get changed out of my pajamas.
  4. Sometimes the most promising thing you have in common with a guy is a shared love of prawns.
  5. I don’t know whether to open a date with "hi" or "hello" or "hey". and once I ended up saying "howdy".

Everything happens for a reason, they say. There’s plenty more fish in the sea. But what happens when everything falls apart and you haven’t got a clue how to go fishing?

An absolutely hilarious and utterly relatable tale for anyone who has ever survived a nightmare relationship, felt a little lonely, or nursed a broken heart with wine and carbs. This feel-good novel will get you back on your feet and genuinely laughing out loud. Perfect for fans of Why Mummy Drinks, Sophie Ranald, and Sophie Kinsella.

This was Ok

I originally thought this would be funnier given the reviews and all throughout listening, I kept thinking it would get better....but it didn't. There were funny parts but it was just ok for me

I’ve never laughed so much!!!

I’m 52 and I literally have NEVER laughed (cried-laughed) SOOO MUCH with a book!
So funny! You won’t be disappointed. Can’t wait to get the rest of the series. What an awesome find, an absolute gem! Love the C sisters.
Don’t think about it twice and just get the book, you won’t regret it

Truly Excellent!

I rarely laugh out loud at stories but this one has me busting up. It was real, it was funny, and the reader was excellent. It’s not a deep book, but it’s well worth listening to.

Im dying laughing

I love this book and the narrator is brillant- the sister lucy is lol funny - I love emma! I listened to this book whilst my 9yr old was seeing a behavioralist! I snorted and shrieked with laughter several times when funny moments caught me off guard!
At the end of my sons appointment I got some very funny looks- later that Day I got some pamplets emailed to me about how my influence as a parent will make all the difference in my sons behavior😭!

You deserve to laugh! Spend your audible credit here!!! Kay shump - ypsi, Mi usa

Terrible grammar

FFS, get an editor. I have never encountered a book with such appalling grammar. I wrote better than that — less the vulgarity — when I was 10yo.
