About this listen

Random House presents the audiobook edition of A Good Heart Is Hard to Find by Trisha Ashley, read by Eva Haddon.

'It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man of over 40 is in possession of a major defect....'

Cassandra Leigh has woken as if from a bad dream: 44, childless and 20-plus years into an affair with a married man. Max assures her they just need a little more patience and for his wife to die (!), but Cass is desperate for a baby and running out of time. Maybe Max is not the only man for her?

There's her friend Jason - though he's perhaps a little too rugged - and there's something strange about the way his wife disappeared.... Or there's Dante, the mysterious stranger she meets on a dark night in his haunted manor house....

Cass must throw caution to the wind and claim the life she's always wanted. Suddenly it's a choice between Mr Right, Mr Wrong or Mr Right Now.

Fantastically funny and whimsical, this heartwarming novel will charm fans of Milly Johnson and Jill Mansell.

Grew on me

This was my very first Trish Ashley novel after hearing great things about her writing. I did not immediately like it but it grew on me with every chapter.
The narrator, for starters, sounds well in her 60s while the novels protagonist is 44. She did have an amazing range however, and the story suits her voice. She makes it sound funny but not country England fun (as I was expecting). Rather saucy in a harmless way. Quite enjoyable.
Reading the blurb of this book, it doesn't actually tell you anything about what this story is really about, so it took some time to get into it and I must admit, there were moments when I almost abandoned the book. Then it started to make sense. Then I got hooked.
It's not so much about a love triangle but quadruple with unusual characters, eccentric great friendship, sprinkled with a touch of naughty and great use of language.
If you like stories that are a bit 'out there', this is definitely for you!
