Best Friends and Bastards

According to most, 39-year-old Australian, Angie Romeo, is living a blessed life. Living on Sydney’s sublime northern beaches, married to a handsome and successful realtor, and a well-respected Nurse Unit Manager of a busy obstetrics unit, she should have ‘no worries, mate’, as the Aussie saying goes. However, for Angie, this is far from the truth. Although she suspects her husband George of having had past dalliances, she chooses to live in complete denial, believing that a baby will solve this dilemma. Only her biological clock is ticking, and no baby in sight. And her interfering mother just keeps adding fuel to the proverbial marital fire. Booking a romantic holiday to Bali for her and George in order to reinvigorate their marriage, Angie soon finds herself in a situation far out of her comfort zone, and she is forced to face the truth. Her world is turned upside down as she begins to suspect her best friends of being right bastards. And some of the people she thought of as right bastards could just well become her best friends. Written with splashes of compassion, streams of humour, rivers of emotion and oceans of passion, ‘Best Friends and Bastards,’ by Jaci Byrne is a waterfall of brilliant reading and a real page turner packed with action and intrigue.
