Synopsis
When Venetia Summers' husband leaves her for another, suddenly she finds herself a single mother of three, her every ounce of wit and resource called into play as she strives to hold together her newly lopsided family. Venetia's attempts to make the best of things, both for her and her children, is intricately recorded in her diaries. Her battles are everyday ones--with wayward flora and fauna, nits, a traumatic bathroom conversion. But there are consolations in her day-to-day existence and perhaps, amongst it all, the promise of new love.

Review
"An entertaining celebration of family life with all its highs, lows and eccentricities. It puts Barker firmly in the camp of interesting female novelists who entertain as much as they inform.""-The Times (London)
"Imagine Bridge Jones cooled out, married, the mother of three, living in the British countryside-and suddenly deserted by her husband. The result might be something like this breezy novel.""-Us Weekly
"Rafaella Barker endows her narrator with a keen sense of humor. And the author's disarming portrait of country life almost makes you want to trade places with Venetia." -"The Dallas Morning News
