In the style of The Jane Austen Book Club comes a tasty slice of suburban life. Five women friends, five pretty cafés, two marriages on the brink, one life adrift, an ‘imaginary’ new beau, a ‘trophy’ girlfriend, and a smattering of guilty secrets….
When five Aussie BFFs calling themselves the ‘café birds’ share the ups and downs of modern life over not-so-skinny cappuccinos and cake, they uncover a smattering of guilty secrets.
Paige’s marriage to a PTSD-afflicted soldier and her newly established business both teeter on the brink, while Caitlin's world is rocked by a devastating discovery. Lonely widow Nita feels her life and relationship with her newly ‘Goth’ teenage daughter have come adrift, and Megan has an icky aspic of guilty secrets wobbling on her plate. Gorgeous Grace appears permanently typecast as trophy girlfriend to a succession of unworthy suitors, and her friends will do anything to change that.
Will they find the solutions to their problems, or just create more?
‘This novel presents a slice of life. The characters in the book are truly human. Readers will laugh, cry, and hope that they too can become members of The Café Birds.’ – reviewer KM Lance
