Robin is shocked but thrilled when Hannah arrives on his Oxford doorstep with a two year old and a suitcase, and announces that Freddie is his son. Her husband Marcus was less happy to learn about Hannah’s fling with Robin, but several months on he’s longing to spend some time with the little boy he thought was his. So he takes on a house-sit a few streets away.

Reviews

Publishing News
'Highmore excels in taking a witty and somewhat wry look at relationships, and in Sleeping Around families in all their forms take centre stage, with added spice coming from their histrionics, fanciable house sitters, and flights to France' Publishing News
Bookseller
'A witty, wry observant tale of mixed relations' Bookseller
Glamour
'Where Highmore excels is in the unsentimental way she writes about the dilemmas life throws at us. There's also a mordant, black humour to her writing, which keeps the froth at bay and makes this a novel firmly rooted in reality' Glamour
Star magazine
'A fun little romp' Star magazine
Prima
'If you're after some fluffy chicklit froth to brighten up your day, you won't be disappointed' Prima
Closer
'A tangled, complicated tale of love and life' Closer
