About this ebook

The best days of your life might be still to come…

When 73 year old Jen announces that she is going to marry Eddie, a man she met just a few months previously on a beach on Boxing Day, her four best friends from aqua aerobics are flabbergasted.

The wedding is booked and, when the groom decides to have a stag trip to Las Vegas, the ladies arrange a hen party to beat all others -a week in the city of love, Paris.

From misadventures at the Louvre, outrageous Parisian cabarets, to drinking champagne with a dashing millionaire at the casino, Paris lives up to all their hopes and dreams. But a week can change everything, and the women that come home have very different dreams from the ones who got on the plane just days ago.

Funny, fearless and with a joie de vivre that reminds you to live every day like it’s your last. Judy Leigh has once again written the perfect feel-good novel for all fans of Cathy Hopkins, Dawn French and Fiona Gibson

    Sometimes audio books are offered at a cheap price for a reason. This story of five women in their early seventies who decide to have a week-long bachelorette party in Paris to celebrate the wedding of their friend, Jen. is just awful
  • Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

    Never too old to live!

    Enjoyed the characters and their pluckiness. Cute sub plots filled with cheery hope. As a middle ages it gave me hope.
