Publisher's Summary

Sophia Gregory has lost her sparkle.... Recently single and about to turn 60, Sophia doesn’t recognise the old woman staring back at her in the mirror. How has life passed her by? A quiet holiday in beautiful Rhodes is the perfect chance for her to find herself.

Until she meets the Old Ducks!

Juliette, Kim and Anita are three friends who are determined not to grow old gracefully! Bold and brash, they are Sophia’s worse nightmare, until they make her an honorary member of The Old Ducks’ Club! Now dancing and drinking till dawn Sophia starts to shake off her stuffy old life and start living again!

And when she meets her gorgeous Greek neighbour, Theo, she thinks that maybe, if she’s just a little braver, she can learn to love again too....

It’s never too late to teach an Old Duck new tricks!

A rip-roaring, laugh out loud story about the importance of friendship and always, always having fun!

Perfect for fans of Judy Leigh and Dee Macdonald.

Uplifting!

What a lovely, funny, thoughtfull, true and raw storyline. Craftily and cleverly written and superbly narrated. Such a sensitive topic dealt with in an effective tongue-in-cheek manner. A most enjoyable audio-book!

Absolutely wonderful!

Great narration and you feel like you are one of Sophia's friends joining her on holiday in Greece. Friends, laughs, good food and a great location can certainly make worldly troubles feel less bothersome. Even my husband loved it, can you believe!
