Chloe needs a holiday. She’s sick of making wedding dresses, her partner Philip has troubles at work, the whole family wants a break. Her wealthy friend Gerard has offered the loan of his luxury villa in Spain – perfect.
Hugh is not a happy man. His immaculate wife Amanda seems more interested in her new kitchen than in him, and he works so hard to pay for it, he barely has time for his children. Maybe he’ll have a chance to bond with them on holiday. His old friend Gerard has lent them a luxury villa in Spain – perfect.
Both families arrive at the villa and realise the awful truth - Gerard has double-booked.

This is the first (and only) book I'll read by Madeleine Wickham. What absolute crap! Of the 4 main characters, none of them is likable. Nor do any of them "mature" throughout the book. The writing is flat, the characters are one-dimensional and the plot is just so-so. Had I not needed a book set...
I thought this story was cute and well thought out but the ending was alittle to real life for me. I read books to get away from depressing realistic situations silly.
Sleeping Arrangements is one of Sophie Kinsella's old books that she has written as Madeleine Wickham. I have read only one Madeleine Wickham book, Cocktails for Three, and I thought it was a very simple book, it wasn't one of my favourites but it was good. I am currently on vacation so I thought re...
