3*
She's old enough to be his mother. But she's having too much fun to care...
Alice has always looked young for her age, even with her greying hair and her housewife style. But now that her husband's gone and her daughter is grown, Alice is in desperate need of a new life. So she lets her best friend Maggie transform her into a woman who looks really young.
But the white lies escalate, and soon Alice finds herself with a gorgeous 20-something boyfriend and the dream job she'd briefly had before becoming a full-time mom. For the first time since she was actually twenty-nine, or possibly ever, Alice feels that life is ripe with possibility. But has Alice told one lie too many?
Well written with a good moral lesson rebelling against ageism in all shape and form, Alice wasn’t really my cup of tea, I found her a bit annoying and clingy but the workplace, homestead setting was interesting enough.
An easy to read, lighthearted chick lit novel, with a decent plot.
