Publisher Comments:

The Best of Friends is a heart-breaking and heart-warming story of marriage, adultery, children and reconciliation.

Gina and Laurence have been friends since youth. Now, each married, Gina to Fergus and Laurence to Hilary, the two couples are the best of friends. They live in the peaceful town of Whittingbourne where Laurence and Hilary run a small country hotel and have three teenage sons. Gina and Fergus enjoy a somewhat more lavish lifestyle in a beautiful house called High Place.

One day Fergus leaves Gina, who falls to pieces. Their daughter revolts and Gina turns to her oldest and dearest friend, Laurence. Soon his comforting becomes an affair and both marriages appear to be over.

Synopsis:

Gina and Laurence have been the best of friends since they were teenagers. They have never been in love - just friends. When Gina's husband announces he is leaving her, she turns to Laurence for emotional support. But as Laurence gives comfort, his own marriage edges towards destruction.

Synopsis:

Latest saga from the number one bestselling author, many of her books having transferred to television. Relates the events in the lives of two families, loyal and devoted friends for years. But both marriages become wrecked when one husband leaves, and when comforting goes too far, the other has an affair. Deals with the gradual return to normality, the effect on the children, and includes wonderful characters like the grandmother who finds true love at eighty!
