Summary

Available for the first time: audio editions of Milly's brilliant short stories 'Here Come the Boys', 'The Wedding Dress', 'Ladies Who Launch' and 'The Barn on Half Moon Hill'.

Milly Johnson is the sparkling and irrepressible author of six best-selling novels. She is also a columnist, greetings card copywriter, poet and after-dinner speaker. Her books are about the universal issues of friendship, family, betrayal, babies, rather nice food and a little bit of that magic in life that sometimes visits the unsuspecting.

This audio edition is read by Colleen Prendergast and Esther Wane, who have narrated books by Cathy Bramley, Jill Mansell and Milly Johnson's The Queen of Wishful Thinking.

Good short stories

Any additional comments?

4 good short stories. Wish there had have been a few more as the whole book was a bit short (only 6 hours) If you have read Milly Johnson's books, you will recognise a lot of the characters in some of the tales, that have been in her earlier books.The story called The Barn on Halfmoon Hill was particularly good, it had me laughing out loud it was so funny! It starts with a series of letters written over a period of about 15 years, by a Welsh girl called Cariad, to a famous American movie star called Franco. The outcome is lovely though! The narrator is excellent. Recommended!!

great

Lovely follow ups to several 0f her novels. Satisfies some of the "What happened next" and enlarges on stories previously referred to. Very satisfying

Too short

Loved it - and the bringing in of old characters from other books.. but it was only half as long as her novels.

Mostly enjoyable

I mostly enjoyed these short stories although some were predictable. The last one wasn’t quite so good. I wasn’t so keen on the storyline.
