About this listen

Three women.

One widowed.

One unmarried.

One almost divorced.

All aged 63, but not ready to give up on life!

Leaving behind the heartache, guilt and disappointment of their real lives, three friends decide that now they’re in their sixties, it’s time they finally did something for themselves!

Swapping Christmas turkeys and BBC reruns for crystal waters, white sandy beaches and smooth golden rum, Anne, Jane and Kath throw caution (and tradition) to the wind as they set sail on a luxury two-week Christmas cruise around the Caribbean.

Will the three friends find the comfort and joy they seek aboard the Diamond Star?

‘Fabulous to read…It’s about a girls’ weekend with characters in their 60s and determined to have a good timeWoman & Home

enjoyable listen

it took me a little while to get into this audio book but i soon got into the lives of the characters and their personalities, i really enjoyed the story. As a new person to cruising I could relate to some parts of holidaying on a cruise ship also.

The Cruise

Oh Wow ~ a light hearted entertaining book ~ The author engaged you with the characters ~ giving you a good impression on what it would be like to be in a cruise. It is also very well read by the narrator too.
