About this listen

**SOON TO BE A MAJOR APPLE TV SERIES**
What if you could change husbands as easily as a lightbulb?
One night Lauren finds a strange man in her flat who claims to be her husband. All the evidence – from photos to electricity bills – suggests he’s right. And then another one appears. Lauren’s attic, she slowly realises, is creating an endless supply of husbands for her. There’s:
The one who’s too hot (there must be a catch).
The one who pretends to play music on her toes.
The one who can calm her unruly thoughts with a single touch.
But when you can change husbands as easily as changing a lightbulb, how do you know whether the one you have now is the good-enough one, or the wrong one, or the best one? And how long should you keep trying to find out?

Loved it ! Such a good listen
Brilliant narration and such an interesting plot - you’ll have never read a book like it ! Easy to get on with, lots of great characters (well accented by the reader) and funny. An interesting take on the throw away nature of online dating these days - but more surprising than you’d think!

So original
I loved this - I was instantly hooked by the concept and then really impressed by the pacing and inventiveness with the idea. It was bizarre and fun and a really interesting analysis of love and relationships. I have been recommending it left right and centre.

Unique concept
Liked the concept of being able to pick and choose different husbands as though on Tinder.
Would have liked for fewer options and more concentration on strong relationship development, spark and romance with a few of the husbands.

Brilliantly unique!
Loved every bit of this book from start to finish. Such a good concept and teetering on darkness by the end

Lovely and innovative
Great narration, innovative storyline and a most enjoyable listen. Interesting to see how it was all going to end with the multitude of husbands!
