A wickedly funny story from the bestselling author of The Boy Who Fell to Earth, Kathy Lette.
Query: would it be a serious breach of etiquette to run out on my own wedding?
This is the question Becky Steele finds herself asking, on the morning of her very own wedding. Having finally managed to fit into her meringue dress after weeks of drinking only skimmed water, she is suddenly uncertain about what exactly she wants.
Yes, she loves Julian, but is she quite ready to become a proper grown-up, and give up on the joys of the single life? Julian might be the right man, but has she had enough wrong ones?
Things get more complicated still when temptation arrives in the form of gorgeous rockstar toy boy Zack. And it looks like Julian might be making a few contingency plans of his own …
This is a refreshed cover edition.
"A master of the chick lit genre, British author Kathy Lette has struck gold once again with this novel of 30-something hilarity. Aided by a vibrant reading by Shirley Barthelmie, the story of Becky Steele comes to life as she grapples with her problems. Struggles with marriage, being jilted, and affairs become a spirited aural romp. Barthelmie expertly portrays the subtle shifts in English accents in the effervescent banter between Becky and her friends. While the American accents leave something to be desired, overall this story of a conflicted modern woman is a joy to listen to. Prepare to laugh aloud as the high jinks ensue."

and Mad Cows, brings her bawdy wit and uninhibited writing
style to this tale of love, life, and relationships.'
