WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOUR WIFE ORGANIZED A THREESOME FOR YOU ON YOUR HONEYMOON?
Scott is shocked by his wife Hannah's suggestion, but hesitantly agrees to go along with it. Back home, both feel a little guilty about their encounter with a Thai woman called Marilyn, but soon put it behind them when they discover Hannah is pregnant.
Then Marilyn turns up on their doorstep, six months pregnant, and Scott comes to realize that in life there is often a price to pay for indiscretion. Squeezed is a story about family, and how sometimes we don't appreciate what we've got until it's gone.
Perfect for fans of Graeme Simsion, Tracy Bloom, Sue Moorcroft, Jojo Moyes and Cecelia Ahern

I haven't enjoyed a book as much as this one in many a year. Laughing out loud most of the time and (trying not to give anything away) shedding quite a few tears as well. Yep, I'm a bloke and not supposed to do that but I'm not ashamed to admit it. This little story had all the right people in it and although it was fictitious every bit of it could have been factual. David Atkinson, tears of laughter rolled down my face but your story also broke my heart. This is my number one book of the year and I'm already reading another by this very gifted author.
More like watching a Rom-Com than reading a book - easy to read escapism rather than realistic, but hilarious, sad and touching at times.
A couple with two kids struggling to make ends meet find themselves in an awkward situation when the wife finds she is pregnant and an unexpected visitor drops in from Thailand on Christmas Eve.
A wonderful read of life, love, trauma and its ups and downs. One to make the reader think perhaps and most definitely smile. A feelgood read I really enjoyed
