Summary

The BRAND NEW hilarious novel from the #1 bestselling author, Maddie Please!

It’s never too late to sail a new course...

When retired Jill Parker wins an all-expenses paid mediterranean cruise for two she is thrilled! At 63 life in retirement has got a little bit bland for Jill and this might be just the holiday she and husband Eddy need to get the sparks back in their marriage.

But when Eddy admits he would much prefer to build his patio and look through the latest DIY magazine, Jill is left with only one other option – her sister Diana.

Diana has become rather reclusive since her husband, Caspar died, but perhaps this is the push she needs to bring some excitement back into her life, too?

Could this trip be just what both sisters need to reconnect and chart a new path for their futures?

Excited to be exploring new horizons and catching up, the sisters soon discover that not everything is smooth sailing on board. And as they enjoy cocktails together at sundown, they discover that they are both actually a little all at sea…

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

Such Fun

Absolutely loved listening to this story of adventures, life on board a cruise ship and the love that exists between people, whether they are family or that which brings new people into our lives.
The narrator is excellent as always and the pace of the storyline just right.
This book makes you think about the importance of those relationships we have in our lives and was a joy to listen too .
I have listened to all of Maddie’s books on Audible and enjoyed every one of them , I can’t wait for the next one.

A real easy and enjoyable listen

I thoroughly enjoy this. I've always wanted to go on a cruise and really enjoyed listen to the escapades of these ladies. Will be reading more of these.
