This book is hilarious! I wish it was longer as I wasn't ready for the fun to end. I haven't looked at the author's other books yet but I hope there are more like this one.Betty is a middle aged British housewife who is devastated to find her husband has been lying to her about loosing his job a year ago, racking up debt, taking out loans against the house, and borrowing from loan sharks. She follows him to see where he has been going every day since he obviously wasn't going to work. What she learns destroys her marriage. She is stuck caring for her elderly disagreeable mother-in-law, her adult daughter who has just left her husband because he was boring, and her three year old grand daughter. How is she going to support all these people and pay off the debt her husband has left her owing? Her solution is to write a "rompy" book. But of course she needs to do some research in able to know what she is writing about. The research is a riot!I'm afraid I am more like Betty before she did her erotica research. I would have to hire someone to tell me what to do with sex toys too. I have never wanted to read real erotica and usually would not download a book in that category but this book is definitely different. As the warning says, it is an adult book, but I did not find it offensive in any way. I love Betty and hope she has a fantastic career in her chosen field.
