I am delighted to share my thoughts on Six Steps To Happiness by Suzie Tullett. I have read a couple of books by Suzie and enjoyed them a lot, so it was a no brainer when I saw the Blog Tour sign up for her latest book. My huge thanks to Sarah at Book On The Bright Side Publicity for my spot on the tour and also for arranging my copy of Six Steps To Happiness.

Let me show you what it is all about…

When Ronnie’s husband, Nick, leaves her for their next-door neighbour, Gaye, Ronnie’s life starts to fall apart.

Devastated by the break-up of her marriage, Ronnie is desperate for Nick and Gaye to set up home elsewhere. But Nick and Gaye won’t budge.

To add to her problems, Ronnie’s daughter and mother-in-law decide to stage an intervention. With her family keeping a close eye on her, Ronnie is forced to become more devious in her actions to get rid of Nick and Gaye.

But just how far will she go?

And is moving on ever that easy?

Six Steps to Happiness is a hilarious look at just how far one woman will go to recover from a broken heart and find happiness again.

Ronnie has been struggling to come to terms with life after the end of her marriage. he fact that her husband Nick lives next door with his new girlfriend Gaye with an “e”, doesn’t really help the situation either. Ronnie takes to playing tricks on Gaye and this leads to a local PC, Jack, on her doorstep. Luckily for Ronnie she still has the support of her Mother in Law Bea and Willow, Ronnie’s daughter.

I really enjoyed the way that the author dealt with life after a marriage breakdown. Ronnie and Nick had been married for 25 years, they’d had a daughter together and this seemed to be the entirety of her life. So coming to terms with being alone has hit her hard, and especially as he has moved in with the woman next door. Talk about a constant reminder of how tings have gone wrong!

The antics of Ronnie were good fun and imaginative, but at the same time I didn’t approve at how she was focusing all her energy on trying to get her own back, although it does make for some really entertaining reading! Luckily I wasn’t the only one that wasn’t completely taken with Ronnie’s tactics, Bea and Willow are on hand to create a set of six steps to try to get Ronnie out of the rut she is in. While these are wonderful ideas, they don’t always go according to plan and again add to the humour of the story.

The characters are brilliant, and so well developed. There were times when I could see their facial expressions as they encountered some of the situations in the story, it great when this happens. Even as I type this review up I an sniggering to myself!

This is a fabulous story and one that I was easily able to sit and read in a single afternoon. It has some fun moments as well as more serious ones that add a nice balance to the whole feel of the story. It does have a very satisfying ending and it did have me wondering as to how the author would wrap it all up, the ending was great btw!

A very enjoyable read with fabulous characters and a story line that was full of surprises, it had a lovely heartwarming feel and if you are a fan of Rom-com then you are going to love it. I would definitely recommend it.
