From the outside, Vicky Townsley would appear to have it all. Features Director of the hugely successful "Poise!" magazine, she lives alone in London, is single, solvent, and seriously successful. But she'd give it all up in a heartbeat for marriage, children, and a house in the country. Amber Winslow, on the other hand, has exactly what Vicky Townsley wants: a huge stone mansion in Highfield Connecticut, children and a busy charitable commitment for the local Women's League. But Amber isn't happy either. She hasn't found quite the fulfilment she had expected from being a full-time wife and mother, so when she spots a double page spread in "Poise!" magazine asking married readers to life swap with a glamorous, single journalist in London, she sits down and writes a letter. But she never expects to be picked..."Life Swap" is the story of what really happens when two women decide to walk in one another's shoes for one month. It's the story of the grass not being as green as you might think, and of discovering that happiness is not always where you expect it to be.

Firstly, huge apologies for keeping this book so long!!! On a plus point, I have been trying to read all the 'given-to-me' books from 2006 - and this was the last one :o)

I thought this was a fab book!! Jane Green is one of my favourite writers anyway (which makes me cross for not reading it sooner, think it has just been hidden on my shelf), but I loved the concept of the story, and would love there to be a follow-up!
