The New Mrs D: An Amazon No1 Best Seller.
"After The Midnight Library, The 5th Woman, and Olive, Again... Meet The New Mrs D - The Sharp, Heartfelt and Uplifting Reinvention of a Woman Breaking Free.
'Wine-spittingly, chocolate-chokingly brilliant! Hill is the Tom Sharpe of her era! Genuinely laugh out loud funny with great writing and a plot to keep you hooked. Buy it, read it - but if like me you are of a certain age, do so with an empty bladder." - Amanda Prowse, author of The Idea of You and What Have I Done.
Bernice Dando thought she had the perfect honeymoon planned in sunny Greece with her new husband, David. But four days in, she's faced with a shocking truth: David's complete lack of interest in intimacy is due to his addiction to porn. Devastated, Bernice struggles with the painful realisation that her marriage may be built on a lie. Can she move past it, or will she be labelled as overreacting, frigid, or worse?
When Bernice, a funny, feisty woman in her forties, sets off on the adventure of a lifetime -- alone -- she never imagines how life-changing it will be. From triggering a Greek fish explosion to spontaneous nude karaoke, her wild holiday turns into the ultimate escape. Bernice soon discovers that life has much more to offer than a humdrum marriage.
But when her husband shows up, begging for a second chance, Bernice faces a life-altering choice: does she return to her old life, or embrace a whole new adventure?
A laugh-out-loud romantic comedy for fans of women's fiction, midlife reinvention, and hilarious adventures. Perfect for readers who love Calendar Girls, The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, and Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood.
"The New Mrs D is a refreshing, sharp-witted and empowering romp that reflects real life, delves into unspoken about subjects and slaps the reader in the face with honesty." Fleur Ferris, author
It is a story about one woman's midlife awakening... on her honeymoon alone.
??? Praise For The New Mrs D
"A very funny and touching book from a brilliant new voice in women's fiction." - Jon Rance, author of The Last Day of Summer and Love, Unscripted.
"Ms Hill whisks off to the Greek Islands for a colourful adventure. She takes us on a sensory journey where we soak up the hot sun, drink in the fragrant wine and cradle our temples as Binnie flings her flip flop at us from a speeding scooter" "" Talesfromabruceeyeview
"the perfect setting for a hilarious update to Eat Pray Love" - Tara Gladden Cornerstones
'This book would do well on your Kindle as a fairly light summer read with a little discussion of more serious issues. You can't call this "chick lit" - it's way better than that. Take a look.' - AMAZON VINE VOICE REVIEW
??? International Praise For The New Mrs D 'Watch out Jane Green and Helen Fielding! There's a new novelist from your side of the pond.' - Annie McDonnell, Chick Lit Plus
'The New Mrs D by Heather Hill had me laughing from page one. The book is so engaging that I stayed up all night to read it - I downloaded it at 10.30 pm and just kept reading. To say it grabbed me by the short and curlies is an understatement! I totally identified with Binnie and so "got it". Heather's light, chatty writing style is refreshingly "real" and she has all the hallmarks of a truly great story teller.
This is a woman's story. It's hysterically funny, empowering and truthful.
I hope we see more excellent stories from Heather Hill - anyone who can make me laugh in the opening paragraph and maintain it, has my undivided attention. She's a gifted author.
This book could so easily become a box office smash. I hope someone decides to make The New Mrs D into that film.'
Claire Smith - 1st Assistant Director @ GFox Productions
