About this listen

A hilarious, straight-talking read for fans of Fiona Neill and Gill Hornby’s ‘The Hive’.

Maia is a cleaner for ladies who lunch. With mops and buckets in tow, she spends her days dashing from house to house cleaning up after them, as they rush from one exhausting Pilates class to the next.

But an unusual inheritance catapults her and her children into the very exclusive world of Stirling Hall School – a place where no child can survive without organic apricots and no woman goes a week without a manicure.

As Maia and her children, Bronte and Harley, try to settle into their new life, Maia is inadvertently drawn to the one man who can help her family fit in. But is his interest in her purely professional? And will it win her any favours at the school gate?

A hilarious, straight-talking read for anyone who's ever despaired at the politics of the school run.

Amazing!

Absolutely loved this book, laugh out loud at times. The narration was superb. Found it difficult to put down, yet now I’ve finished it I want to start it over again. I only have one small gripe and that is that I wished it had finished a few chapters before it did as I felt it would have had a more natural ending

A story that shows how money can change your life but not who you are

Confession time!
This was the very first audiobook I ever bought, about 4-5 years ago.
I don’t know why but I really didn’t like it! I think I listened to 15 minutes, and asked for a refund.
Fast forward to 2 months ago, I came across Other People’s Marriages by Kerry Fisher, I loved it and - as you do - I bought all of her audiobooks one after the other (loved all of them).
I left this one as last because I knew I already attempted it.
I’d say I saved the best for last!
I absolutely loved listening to this book! Loved the characters (apart from the ones whom you’re not meant to love Lol), Maya, Clover, Mr Peters (Mmmmm) and the twists are great! Perfect delivery by the talented narrator Sally Orrock.
Loved the storyline, and really, massively enjoyed listening to this book!
Please write lots more great books Kerry! 🙏🏼💝

Outstanding

I have really enjoyed this book and have listened to it a couple of times. it is a shame that we don't know how the new family life plays out, I felt it ended a bit too soon a sequel would be good or a couple of extra chapters.
this book is very east to listen to I look forward to enjoying more books by kerry fisher

Great story and well performed

Delightful read

When the book started I was hooked, it was so interesting all the character's seemed so real and Zac well just wait and see what you think of him, I could definitely fall for the man if he was a real person and I was 30 years younger 😂🤣.
I wished I had heard of Kerry Fisher before, I normally read/hear Crime books but it's great to have a change.
I'm so sure your 😍 love the storyline 🤓.

Simply the best book I've ever read/heard
