Book description
When Perdita Dylan delivers her baby vegetables to a local hotel and
finds that her unpredictable ex-husband, Lucas, has taken over the
kitchen, she is horrified - particularly when she discovers he's being
groomed as the latest celebrity chef and needs her picturesque, if
primitive cottage, and her, in supporting roles.
Her life is further complicated when Kitty, her 87-year-old friend,
has a stroke. Perdita needs someone to lean on - and Lucas seems so
keen to help that she starts to wonder if he's really such a villain.
Can she cope with all this alone? Or should she face up to the fact
that 'You can't cuddle lettuces'?
Katie Fforde lives in Gloucestershire with her husband and some of
her three children. Recently her old hobbies of ironing and housework
have given way to singing, Flamenco dancing and husky racing. She claims
this keeps her fit.
