It’s everything we dream we’d do if only we had the balls. That sun lounger fantasy that just won’t quit. What if we could escape the grind and run away to blue skies, rolling waves and bikini bods? It’s the reason we watch reruns of A PLACE IN THE SUN and linger creepily outside estate agent windows advertising holiday homes we can’t afford.
ISLAND IN THE SUN is about two wholly underqualified women running a sustainable B&B on the island of Mallorca. It has all the wholesome romance of COLIN FROM ACCOUNTS, if by romance we mean a business partnership. Eco-farming, creative accounting, unruly guests, local criminals, unlikely romance, motherhood, and the power of female friendship.
Craving both the adventure of their 20s and the security of approaching middle age these women navigate their own version of a 30-something crisis. Our characters soon find living with one foot in the past and one foot in the future often leads to a massive front wedgie.
