Summary

Sweet Temptation is an incredibly funny and sharply observant story, from best-selling author Lucy Diamond.

Maddie's getting it from all sides. Her bitchy new boss at the radio station humiliates her live on air about her figure, her glamour-puss mum keeps dropping not-so-subtle hints that Maddie should lose weight and her kids are embarrassed to be seen with her after the disastrous mums' race at their school sports day. Something's got to change....

Maddie joins the local weight-watching group expecting more humiliation but instead finds two unlikely allies - bitter divorcee Lauren who, despite running a dating agency, has signed off romance for ever and shy Jess, the beautician who's desperate to fit into a size-10 wedding dress for her big day.

Feels like a warm hug!

This book was such a comforting tale of relationships and friendships. It wasn't particulary cerebral which made for easy listening. It also made me laugh out loud in some places.
