When Jessica's husband of 34 years left her for a younger woman, she thought her life would be solitary thereafter. How wrong she is: with her children, grandchildren, friends and neighbours and Mother downing cans of Red Bull in her retirement home, plus the activities that go on in a small town, her life is often very funny. There is even new love. Humorous chicklit for the older woman.

  • Shaikh-Down on June 19, 2011

    I have not read any erotica before so I am not quite sure how to rate this aspect of Shaikhdown. It made my hair stand on end frequently. On the other hand, I laughed out loud more often and the plot was a real page turner. And the author's take on life in an arab country was an eye opener. Can it really be as chaotic and bizarre?
