Summary: good
Review: now i know people say fiona walker is good and all....but really the first time i read the book it really got me all confused...i must admit i was looking for a nice romantic-neaderthal kinda novel so i was dissapointed with this...but by the third time i really got into charater.
the charaters are amazing and all have their stories. my best would be tash french (obviously), the heroine in the book. in between horse racing and trying to arrage her marriage ceremony, she's really confused about her fiance because deep down she's all for the hunk, hugo. well in the end it was chaos and all with who was who....i'll stop there ...

Summary: Wonderful
Review: Read French Relations first, if you cant get it from the US, do what I did and order it through Amazon UK. These books are a series and its not obvious when buying.

Great fun, lively. I got quite 'locked in'. Both books are quite a size (about 700 pages) so joined together they are an epic, but I did not find them even slightly long winded.

-Main characters are excellent and likable despite their 'faults' and there are a couple of excellent personality disorders in there!
-Plot is funny, maintains interest and has lots of surprises. To tell you about it could ruin it so not adding too much detail beyond the fact that its about who Tash will end up with.
-If you like Marrian Keyes/Catherine Alliott/Isabel Wolff I think you would like this.

Summary: Laugh out loud romance...
Review: This is without doubt my favorite of all Fiona Walkers books - no mean feat in itself as I adore Ms Walkers funny sweet and witty writing style. Well Groomed is so packed with witticisms, puns and double entendres that you can re-read this book numerous times and still find something new to laugh at. You can take my word on this as I'm currently re-reading this book for about the sixth time. Tash is a fabulous character, who is so well written that you feel you not only like her...but that you could be very like her indeed -she's funny, sweet, clumsy, makes mistakes, gets the wrong end of the stick and has trouble deciding what to wear. In addition she doesn't keep her house spotless and struggles with her weight, relations and love life. Now what girl isn't like that really??
Hugo and Niall as the two main men in her life are wonderful as well, as are the rest of the motley crew of friends and family that make up the rest of the Well Groomed characters.
I can't recommend this book enough but really do suggest that you get French Relations as well and read that first.
Read and enjoy!
