Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

HER HOT FLUSHES MUST BE THE PERI-MENOPAUSE. THEY SURELY COULDN'T BE ... LOVE?Lisa Darling - high-flying TV-exec and twice-divorced mother-of-two - has enough on her plate without having to deal with the handsome New Yorker parachuted in to her best friend's job at work.She's already navigating life with a grotty teenage son, organising a PTA cheese & wine event, supporting her oldest friend through breast cancer treatment and, since she hit 47, facing a new perimenopause symptom every day. It's no wonder she never has time for Pilates or that DIY panelling she keeps seeing on Instagram (though she'd be the first to admit she'd rather share a bottle of wine with her friends any day).So when Lisa starts feeling overheated every time she clashes with Zach Russo, she convinces herself it will pass. Maybe her HRT just needs adjusting. Until, that is, she finds herself in a sexy - and seriously ill-advised - clinch with him. And then another . .All of which leads to one these long-forgotten feelings couldn't be caused by something else entirely . . . could they? Fun, frank and fabulous, Lisa Darling is the romantic comedy heroine we've ALL been waiting for!

    I picked up this book because I got it through BOTM and told myself I had to read it since I never actually get around to my picks. It took me a while to finish because I kept going back and forth between being into it and losing interest. I absolutely loved both the MMC and FMC, but the ending left me a little bummed because it just ended. I wanted more from them, maybe even an epilogue. Overall, it was a well-rounded book with realistic scenarios for parents, and nothing about it felt too far-fetched.
