Review:

This novel was enjoyable. I listened to the audiobook of this.

The main character Maddie is the newest member in a swimming gang. To get to that point first though, she originally found out on Christmas Day that her husband has been cheating on her with her best friend.

Anyway, all of the women are of many ages and different backgrounds. They shortly become close friends who are there for each other especially during the tough times.

The audiobook of this piece was great. The voices for all of the different characters are very appreciated. I didn’t realise this novel falls into the category of Women’s Fiction which I think tends to be of an older generation however. This novel really was enjoyable.

4/5 Stars
