Publisher's summary

One morning, Connie McColl wakes up and decides to swap her ordinary life for an extraordinary adventure....

Connie McColl is finally free to make her own decisions for the first time in decades. And when she meets glamorous Gill and downtrodden Maggie at a rather dull flower arranging class, it seems that she’s not the only one dreaming of adventure. The three very different women all agree it’s about time they had a holiday to remember.

So they make a pact for this summer to be their best yet - and drive off into the sunset together....

As they meander their way along the beautiful beaches of France and onto the glorious delights of Italy in their luxury campervan, the new friends have plenty of fun and frolics in the sunshine. But the vacation isn’t quite what they expected.

Gill will do anything to have one last holiday romance, Connie has a surprise inheritance awaiting her in Italy, and Maggie has a secret that is going to catch up with them all.

In the end, all three women discover that the journey they thought would be their last really is just the beginning.

Funny, engaging, entertaining with a twist of intrigue.

A girls trip and then some! As a girl of 67 I wish I had friends to take this trip with! I loved traveling along with them, following their individual stories along the at. Now I’m off to read “The Runaway Wife”. I only wish that I had seen that one first. Keep going Dee, I can’t wait to travel along with you!

Delightful

This book was an incredibly fun, and the narration was excellent. I can’t listen to a book if I don’t like the voice of the narrator, but this one was perfect.

Getting away

I love that stories are written about "baby boomer" because life, new friends and adventures don't end when we reach middle age and beyond. I was very sad when Maggie, atleast, didn't figure 'it' out sooner...

Delightful and mildly suspensful

I quite enjoyed this book. the beginning had me interested, although there were some spots I would have skipped if reading myself. I did find myself smiling often and raising an eyebrow a few times. was a good listen.

Now I want a Vacation

Slow to start but the authors decriptions make you feel as if you are traveling along with the girls in Bella. Pack your bags for a great expedition.
