A Year of Mr Maybe's

 


A Year of Mr Maybes by Judy Leigh Womens fiction

Val was expecting to have a wonderful Christmas with her husband Ray. Thinking she would do him a favour due to the weather she hopped in the car and went to the pub to get him… and found more than she anticipated. A divorce and new house and new friends and Val is newly single and happy about it… until she gets an invite to her son's wedding and realises that Ray will be there with his new partner making her look like Billy no mates. So begins her year long quest to find “ Mr December '' - not necessarily a long term partner but someone good enough to stand next to her in her son's wedding pictures as a trip to Canada is involved. 

I love Judy’s books. There is always a good solid plot and plenty of smiles along the way. There are the ups and downs of life but I always find them an uplifting read. This one is again of the older generation and having life,spirit and determination to get the best out of every day.  A story of life and hope and appreciating the moment and what we have whatever our age and to treasure the little things around us. One life- live it.

A Year of Mr Maybes

Never say never to falling in love…

Val didn’t expect to be starting again in her seventies, but when life gives her lemons, Val is determined to make lemonade.

Settled into her new home – a picture-perfect fisherman’s cottage in the small Cornish seaside town of Lowenstowe – Val is ready to start a new chapter. And with her son due to get married next Christmas, there’s also the little job of finding herself a plus-one to help her face her ex-husband and his new girlfriend.

With the support of her neighbour Connie, and after decades of married life, Val takes the plunge back into the world of dating with trepidation and excitement. But can she remember how the single life works, let alone what her type is? There seem to be plenty of Mr Maybes, but no sign of Mr Right.

As the year passes, and as friendships and community life flourish, Val begins to blossom. And as Christmas approach, she might just decide she doesn’t need that plus-one after all - although never say never... 

Judy Leigh is back with her trademark promise of laughter, love and friendship. The perfect feel-good novel for all fans of Dawn French, Dee Macdonald and Cathy Hopkins.
