Fiona Gibson: Gibson, F: One More for the Road, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

One woman. One million chores. One mad plan to escape from it all!

Jessie is definitely, completely, always, absolutely fine - thank you very much!

Jessie is used to helping other people solve their problems, whether for her bonkers boss and her incontinent dog, or, now that her two grown-up sons have moved back in with her, constantly cooking and cleaning for them. Of course it would be nice to do something for herself, but how could she ever find time to relax - let alone attempt to date again - when her kids are always in the way, trying to cultivate bizarre dishes of micro-greens?

One day, Jessie is handed a mysterious job offer which seems to answer everything: as a live-in helper at a luxurious countryside hotel, offering its guests full R&R. At the end of her tether, Jessie accepts, signs the rent over to her hapless lads, and waves goodbye, trying to reassure herself that everyone cancope without her being there to do everything for them... Can't they?

But what if the 'relaxing' hotel - with its eclectic guests, unusual therapy practices, and one veryhandsome chef - could have just as much chaos in store?

This hilarious and relatable novel is perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella, Jill Mansell, and Sara Cox. Praise for Fiona Gibson
