Get ready to enjoy your first holiday abroad with small children. Highlights include: being woken at 5 every morning and working a gruelling day in 30-degree heat chasing kids around the pool with a bottle of sunscreen. Added features: screaming during mealtimes and toddlers moaning about sand. Absolutely no sex guaranteed or your money back Katy and Ben and their four closest friends are going to Spain for a week with their kids. Sun, sex and sangria? Almost certainly not. The couples think they are prepared for all the joys and trials a family holiday has to offer but they have a shock coming, and not only from the kids. Into their first day by the pool crashes Ollie, who has just been dumped by his girlfriend, and Cassie, on her hen party holiday but having serious doubts about her impending marriage.

The series centers mainly on Katy and her husband Ben. These two have had issues in their marriage before, mostly Katy’s infidelity but they’ve managed to work through their problems and are now balancing work and parenting and married life like so many people are. Also in the mix are their set of friends and in this installment they all go on vacation to Spain together with their young children. The friends who join them are Braindead ... hate this nickname, and his wife Abby with their son and Daniel and his husband Gabriel come along with their daughter. On the plane over the group meets women who are on a “hen do” a.k.a. a bachelorette party/vacation and they quickly make friends and exchange numbers with these ladies for possible drinking and hanging out later on.
Once at the resort the group struggles with trying to do activities together while keeping everyone happy and also somehow trying to spend couple time together. I’ve vacationed with a group before and it is always a mission trying to stay together and just trying to keep track of anything. Going to dinner as a group plus with young kids is a feat in itself. That can all be very draining so as far as the planning of activities and stress and drama that can arise from going on vacation with a group this story was pretty spot on.
Daniel was my absolute favorite in this one. He is hilarious and I found his character to be insightful as well. He struggles with the guilt of not wanting to be a stay at home dad but he’s happy he’s kept his career and that his husband stays home with their daughter. He ponders at one point on how and when he and Gabriel fell into these traditional roles in their marriage. I wish he had his own book.
As usual in this series, no one has sex in this book. There is just no time and way too much drama going on. The story moves pretty quickly, I laughed plenty and was highly entertained. I always enjoy the writing in these and the turns of phrase from across the pond as well. Cute cover too.
