About this listen

Tess and Orla have been best friends throughout most of their adult lives. So when life gave them lemons and their loved ones let them down, they pooled their resources and bought a dressmakers shop on the corner of Penny Lane. And they’ve been doing just fine ever since.

But one day, while studying her tired eyes and shapeless figure in the mirror, 62-year-old Tess realised that she doesn’t want her life to be just fine anymore. She wants it to be extraordinary. For as long as she can remember she’s put everyone else first. Now she wants to rediscover herself - and experience the kind of whirlwind adventure that will have the power make her smile when she’s confined to the armchair of a retirement home.

With the encouragement of fun-loving and quirky Orla, Tess joins an over-the-hill dating agency, and the two friends book a singles cruise around the Mediterranean. And that’s when their adventure of a lifetime really begins....

A totally uplifting, heartwarming, hilarious listen about embracing the moment, learning to love again and the joy of second chances. Perfect for fans of The Kicking the Bucket List and The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry.

Fun read!

I really enjoyed the main characters and the various adventures they went on to find Love and romance. As a soon to be silver single I find these types of stories encouraging and this one kept me laughing. I thought the ending a bit too contrived and disappointing, but I suppose she had to end up in a traditional way.

Such a fun narration

I enjoyed this story and could relate to the dating pitfalls that Tess experienced. And I do appreciate plot lines that let you know that romance and desire doesn’t end at 50! However, I really wish that so many of the plus-sized ladies were not referred to in such negative terms. I mean, did you have to say things like, “…as she waddled away.” The underlying implication is that Tess is somehow elevated above these women because she is successfully dieting. What a shame to lay such a layer of shame into the story.

If only she hasn’t gone there

Dee MacDonald does not disappoint. She really portrays the real thoughts going on in a sixty plus year old mind and heart. Laughed as usual, too. We need books for this age group.
