A Bad Bride’s Tale
On sale
6th September 2007
Price: £8.99
Two weeks before her wedding Stevie Jonson has got the jitters. Is she finally growing up, or compromising horribly? In love or in denial? Yes, there are good reasons to get married. Babies, or at least the possibility of babies before eggs shrivel up. Sex whenever she wants it. A justification for staying in without feeling like a loser. Contentment, the shave-legs-in-front-of-him kind.
And there are very good reasons not to get married. Not wanting to sleep with him unless nothing on telly. Never sleeping with anyone else ever again. His mother. His new bald patch. Being called, ‘my wife.’ And the disconcerting reappearance of a former major crush, reminder of everything fiance isn’t. As the clock ticks, a shocking secret threatens to bring Stevie’s future crashing down around her.
A hilarious and heartfelt story about love, marriage and mating and what happens when they refuse to schedule.
