Engaging, entertaining and intelligent fiction for contemporary women. Bunty McKenna's husband is having an affair. Even though she'd known they were growing apart, this realization throws her into a panic. She has no skills. She has no money. The only thing she's ever done with any degree of success is 1)be a wife and 2) bone up a whole lot of daytime TV. So Bunty decides she needs a new husband. A rich one. Thanks to her TV habit, she knows just where to go, and she enrols with a high-class dating agency. There, she meets several prospective partners,including one who ticks all the right boxes. When he disappears back to his native NZ, it makes absolute sense that she should follow him. Daughter and friend in tow, she boards that plane. But life is not like it is on TV, as Bunty soon discovers - along with a whole load of new information about men, about herself, and about the husband she's come to think of as Shrek.
