About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

The funniest Christmas romcom of 2024 from the much-loved TV presenter Alison Hammond, perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella and Ruth Jones.


Her worst nightmare might just be the making of her . . .

Family has always meant everything to Madison. Married to the nation’s heartthrob, TV handyman Rich, with two beautiful children, she’s always put their needs first. And she’s never regretted a second, even if her own career has taken a backseat.

Then, out of the blue, Rich drops a bombshell. He needs some space and he’s moving out.

Overwhelmed by this revelation, Madison turns to her tight-knit group of friends for help. But when their support isn’t enough, Madison resolves to find out what’s really going on. Even if it means turning detective on her own husband.

And with her own interior-design career about to take off (once her manager stops squashing her bold ideas for his terrible ones, and provided she doesn’t get distracted by the new guy in the office), Madison’s about to rediscover her own worth.

She’s a bombshell, after all…

With her trademark wit and warmth, Alison Hammond delivers hilarious hijinks and heart-warming romance in this sparkling new romcom.

Simple story

I loved this book from Alison. It was simple everyday story but brilliantly written to keep you listening. I could hear Alison’s voice in all chapters. Fabulous.
Well read on audible too.

Wonderful ending

I really enjoyed this story. It's quite different from some of the other titles I've read this year. Nevertheless, I quite enjoyed it.

Indifferent

I feel indifferent about this book. I listened to this on audible - firstly, I have to say I was disappointed that Alison didn't read the book. Secondly, I felt that the story started slow - then got interesting and then kind of fell flat at the reveal. The part about her and rich breaking up and deciding its over - it wasn't believable. It seemed to be such an anti climax. I feel like there was so much that could have been explored, but it was cut short.
I'm not sure how this book can be regarded as funny...?
