‘An enjoyable book with an unexpected twist – true love does not always turn out as you imagine’ – Wiltshire Times

Pam King can’t understand why her gran, Ivy, has forbidden her to see Robbie Bennetti. Robbie’s a lovely lad, much less dangerous than Lu Cappa, who’s always giving her the eye when he’s out in his ice-cream van. Pam has to ask her best friend Jill to cover for her while she’s out with Robbie.

When Ivy finds out Pam’s been lying, she makes sure the relationship with Robbie is over for good. Then Jill falls in love, and it’s loneliness that makes Pam accept a date with Lu Cappa. Before she knows it, they’re married.

Even then, Pam knows Lu’s still jealous of Robbie. And she can’t help wondering what Lu’s up to when he’s out with his shifty brother. When Robbie comes back into their lives, it could be the last straw. One thing’s for sure: until everyone starts to tell the truth, there will be as many sorrows as smiles in Pam’s marriage…
