The novels of Madeleine Wickham are every bit as sassy and clever as her Sophie Kinsella books. In Sleeping Arrangements, she delivers a tantalizing tale about an outrageous holiday, proving that love lies in the most unexpected places....
CHLOE NEEDS A HOLIDAY. Her partner, Philip, has troubles at work, and the whole family wants a break. Hugh is not a happy man. His immaculate wife, Amanda, seems more interested in her new kitchen than in him, and he works so hard to pay for it that he barely has time for his children. Maybe he'll have the chance to bond with them on holiday.
When the two families arrive at a villa in Spain for their respective vacations, they get a shock -- it has been double-booked. An uneasy week of sharing begins, and tensions soon mount in the soaring heat. But the temperature isn't solely to blame: What no one else realizes is that Chloe and Hugh have a history, and it seems that the "accidental" double-booking may not have been so accidental after all. Soon, an unexpected romance begins to seriously heat up this holiday, and it isn't long before long-buried secrets and fiery passions erupt.
With a style that combines keen insight and razor-sharp wit, Madeleine Wickham will keep you on the edge of your seat. So grab a cool drink, and get ready for a wonderfully wicked trip you'll not soon forget!
