From the Publisher:
A man, a woman and a mattress. It's not what you think.

WILL: ‘I took a good look at Suzie’s mother the week before the wedding. Eight chins and an arse that wobbled like a boil-in-the-bag curry. Some people would put up with anything for a bit of spice. But there’s a big difference between a biryani and a blancmange.’ EVE: ‘People think I’m a sconemaker, but I’m more of a spicy dip rustle-upper. Just because my skirts cover my backside and I wear sensible shoes doesn’t mean that I’m a complete cardigan.’

Just because my skirts cover my backside and I wear sensible shoes doesn’t mean that I’m a complete cardigan.’
When Will jilts Suzie for a life of free and easy debauchery, he needs to lie low for a while. Enter his old friend Eve, with a no-strings-attached spare futon. But being single isn’t all lager, Lycra and lust. Not when there’s Eve, of the lacklustre love-life, and ticking biological clock, cramping his style...
A witty, gritty novel about love and friendship, mixed signals and missed opportunities, for anyone who's ever looked speculatively at their friends and thought, 'maybe...'
Will and Eve have been friends for year. Now they share more than a flat. Unrequited passion comes to the boil in a tumultuous tale of friendships, sex and a mouse with a taste for designer labels.
'Futon Fever' is young, earthy, raunchy and one of the funniest first novels since 'Lucky Jim'
