Nikki and the widows will live rent-free in my head for a long time. As they tell each other erotic stories, all of the woman find renewed strength to live their lives on their terms. Sprinkled with romance and thriller subplots, this novel has a little bit of something for any reader. 

The erotic short stories are part of the fun (and some would say the the point of the book) but even if you want to skip them the book would read well.

I accidentally downloaded this audiobook and ended up loving it. The voice acting on the audiobook was great, and the novel had a bit of everything, mystery, love, and comedy. Loved the exploration of mother/daughter relationships and redefining sexuality as older women.

“Out of all the opportunities Britain offered us, choice was the most important thing.”

I didn't know what to expect from this book, but I didn't expect it to be one of my favorite books of 2022. I loved it! It's perfect!!! Totally recommend it!!

The plot and characters are well-developed and well-structured, and the plot twists happen at the right time, making the story truly interesting and entertaining. 

I may have been reticent, especially taking into account the hype, but I totally recommend it!
