Book Description
It's normal to prefer getting a filling at the dentist to spending time with your husband, right? I thought I was sorted on the life front. I was a heart surgeon with a loving partner and two gorgeous little girls. Except my husband's version of 'loving' is lying, cheating and sleeping his way around London. Which means I definitely deserve a refund. Unfortunately, moving on isn't that simple. Just because I know how to operate on a heart doesn't mean I know how to fix my broken one. Plus, I lost the receipt for him years ago so I'm definitely getting short changed. But now I'm single, am I ready to mingle? There are a few minor issues: The last time I went on a date double denim was in fashion and my eyebrows were horrendously overplucked. Men wear stupidly skinny jeans now. I don't know how to use dating apps but at least I don't have to get changed out of my pyjamas. Sometimes the most promising thing you have in common with a guy is a shared love of prawns. I don't know whether to open a date with 'hi' or 'hello' or 'hey' and once I ended up saying 'howdy'. Everything happens for a reason, they say. There's plenty more fish in the sea. But what happens when everything falls apart and you haven't got a clue how to go fishing? An absolutely hilarious and utterly relatable tale for anyone who has ever survived a nightmare relationship, felt a little lonely or nursed a broken heart with wine and carbs. This feel-good novel will get you back on your feet and genuinely laughing out loud. Perfect for fans of Why Mummy Drinks, Sophie Ranald and Sophie Kinsella. Readers love Kristen Bailey: 'Absolutely hilarious!! Seriously, I haven't been able to put this one down!... I have not stopped laughing... One of those books which is perfect after a stressful day because you are guaranteed to laugh out loud... Loved it... Devoured this book in just a few hours... Impossible to put down.' Little Miss Book Lover 87, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'One of the funniest books I have read. Ever!... I absolutely LOVED this.' Star Crossed Reviews, ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 'I can't even count all of the times I burst out laughing... I laughed so hard my cat jumped out of his bed scared out of his mind and gave me an evil look for disturbing his sleep... If you love a good laugh-out-loud story full of heart, love and banter and are not afraid to be that crazy person in public laughing like a total maniac, then this is definitely the book for you!'

My Husband and I
Author: Ingrid Seward
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1471159582
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 348
Book Description
For more than 70 years, the marriage of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip was at the centre of the nation's life. Now, in My Husband and I, Ingrid Seward reveals the real story of their loving and enduring relationship. When a young Princess Elizabeth met and fell in love with the dashing Naval Lieutenant Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark, it wasn't without its problems. The romance between the sailor prince and the young princess brought a splash of colour to a nation still in the grip of post-war austerity. When they married in Westminster Abbey in November 1947, there were 3000 guests, including six kings and seven queens. Within five years, as Queen Elizabeth II, she would ascend to the throne and later be crowned in front of millions watching through the new medium of television. Throughout her record-breaking reign until Prince Philip's death on 9 April 2021, she relied on the formidable partnership she had made with her consort. Now, acclaimed royal biographer Ingrid Seward sheds new light on their relationship and its impact on their family and on the nation. In My Husband and I, we discover the challenges faced by Prince Philip as he had to learn to play second fiddle to the Queen in all their public engagements, but we also get a revealing insight into how their relationship operated behind closed doors. As the years went by, there were rumours of marital troubles, fierce debates over how to bring up their children, and they had to deal with family traumas - from scandalous divorces to shocking deaths - in the full glare of the public eye. But somehow, their relationship endured and provided a model of constancy to inspire all around them. This book is not only a vivid portrait of a hugely important marriage, it is a celebration of the power of love.

What Shamu Taught Me About Life, Love, and Marriage
Author: Amy Sutherland
Publisher: Random House
ISBN: 1588366901
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
While observing exotic animal trainers for her acclaimed book Kicked, Bitten, and Scratched, journalist Amy Sutherland had an epiphany: What if she used these training techniques with the human animals in her own life–namely her dear husband, Scott? In this lively and perceptive book, Sutherland tells how she took the trainers’ lessons home. The next time her forgetful husband stomped through the house in search of his mislaid car keys, she asked herself, “What would a dolphin trainer do?” The answer was: nothing. Trainers reward the behavior they want and, just as important, ignore the behavior they don’t. Rather than appease her mate’s rising temper by joining in the search, or fuel his temper by nagging him to keep better track of his things in the first place, Sutherland kept her mouth shut and her eyes on the dishes she was washing. In short order, Scott found his keys and regained his cool. “I felt like I should throw him a mackerel,” she writes. In time, as she put more training principles into action, she noticed that she became more optimistic and less judgmental, and their twelve-year marriage was better than ever. What started as a goofy experiment had such good results that Sutherland began using the training techniques with all the people in her life, including her mother, her friends, her students, even the clerk at the post office. In the end, the biggest lesson she learned is that the only animal you can truly change is yourself. Full of fun facts, fascinating insights, hilarious anecdotes, and practical tips, What Shamu Taught Me About Life, Love, and Marriage describes Sutherland’s Alice-in-Wonderland experience of stumbling into a world where cheetahs walk nicely on leashes and elephants paint with watercolors, and of leaving a new, improved Homo sapiens.
