From the USA Today bestselling author of the Reading with Ripa Book Club pick
For Better, For Worse comes a provocative tale of midlife temptation, told with incomparable warmth, wit and wisdom by one of Britain’s brightest romantic comediennes...

In a moment of madness, Ali Kingston, wife and mother of three skips work to spend the day with Christian, a gorgeous street artist fifteen years her junior. Midlife crisis or whatever, it escalates when Ali’s husband, Ed, equates her minor indiscretion with a major affair and kicks her out into the rainy night… and Christian’s open arms. Soon thirty-eight-year-old Ali is ensconced in a Notting Hill love nest wondering how to introduce her children to the charismatic Christian, who could easily have been her teenage daughter’s boyfriend rather than her own.

Meanwhile back at the house in suburban Richmond, Ed is also facing unanticipated temptations as two younger women compete to console him for the loss of his wife, while family and friends attempt to reunite him with Ali… with deliciously droll results. Then a disconcerting event forces both Ed and Ali to decide what they really want – from themselves, from each other and from life itself.

A comic tale of how a simple error in judgement turns a seemingly happy couple from compatible to combatable!

‘'The whole plot is like quicksand – it deals with a serious topic under the cloak of comedy, and sucks you right in before you even know it.’
