Fiona Travers, single and in her thirties, has a talent for choosing Mr Wrong. One disappointment too many, and she decides to abandon the hunt. Old Maids RIP, the new spinster thrives.Aren''t the days long gone when you hooked a husband to acquire a life? What can a man give Fiona that she can''t give herself?She voluntarily places herself on the shelf - for good.But there''s nothing more unsettling to the miserably married than a woman who trades in happy-ever-after for the chance of a new beginning. Take Jill. She''s convinced that Fiona''s announcement is just another ploy to help herself to a husband - Jill''s.At the same time Claire, Fiona''s best friend, has grown weary of coping alone. Secretly, she''s arranged a marriage for herself. It ain''t love, but when you''re hurtling towards middle age, childfree and spouse-less, companionship is good enough . . . Or is it?Yvonne Roberts'' wise and witty novel wickedly proposes that the trouble with single women today - is that no one can quite predict what they might do next . . .While the trouble with love - is that it still holds all the best tricks.
