The laugh-out-loud, TOP 100 bestseller!

Tess Simpson needs a break!

No one appreciates her at home. No one appreciates her at work. And now her dog has died. She’s had enough!

Maybe what she really needs is a break from hopeless husband, Dave, the ungrateful ‘kidults’ and the lacklustre job.

River Romero needs a break!

She’s had success in the past, but screenwriting is a tough career in a tough town and her next script has got to fly or River’s dream career is over.

The swap!

Everything about River’s L.A. life sounds exciting to Tess, from the condo with a pool, to the Hollywood glitz.

Everything about Tess’s English country life sounds so calming to River, from the wisteria over the front door to the peaceful bedroom.

Both women want their lives to change, but real life isn’t like the movies.

And what if getting away from it all isn’t all it’s cracked up to be?

A laugh-out-loud, emotional listen, perfect for fans of Fiona Gibson, Tracy Bloom and Sophie Ranald!

Enjoyed this story based both at home and abroad and as someone who likes to travel in the US and in LA in particular I really enjoyed it.

As someone who has recently married it is a little concerning about the state of 20 year marriages!

Narrators had many parts to play and differentiated the voices well, I felt.

Would recommend. An easy listen.

I thought this would just be light and fluffy, a palate cleanser between heavier stuff. It was easy to listen to, well written, good story and humour. It also dealt with serious relationship and personal issue, culminating in the outcome you hope for.

Wow! Not what I expected
