Book News: A Wild Affair by Gemma Townley
The sequel to Gemma Townley’s brilliant novel The Importance of Being Married (which I loved!) has a release date through its UK publishers Orion of 21st January 2010 and is called A Wild Affair. The gorgeous cover has also been released too, and it follows the cover theme of Gemma’s first novel and carries on the adventures of Jessica Wild. I’m really looking forward to the next installment in this story, and here’s the synopsis:
Jessica and Max are finally going to tie the knot, and Jessica is determined to have the biggest, best wedding ever. The only problem is, recently Max has been evasive - and when Jessica follows him and sees him in an apparent tryst with an attractive woman, it’s the last straw. The next thing she knows, she’s drunk at a bar, cosying up to the top rival of Max’s firm, and letting some top-secret work details slip… details that could cost Max everything. The next morning Jessica is deeply ashamed of her actions, and when a series of events leads her to discover an important truth about her past, she realises she shouldn’t have doubted the only man she’s ever loved. But as evidence of her own indiscretion surfaces, she knows that the same can’t be said about her. Is her Big Day, as well as her job and reputation in jeopardy?”
Released through Orion on 21st January 2010. Gemma’s next novel after this, The Ideal Marriage, has a release date of 11th January 2011 on Amazon, although there’s no synopsis up yet.

Nice to see someone else who loved The Importance of Getting Married, seems like it has slipped under a lot of people’s radars!

I’d love to read Gemma’s novels but can’t find any over here in Tenerife. She’s Sophie Kinsella’s sister so it’d be good to see how their styles differ.
The cover for A Wild Affair is beautiful. I really like it. The book sounds good as well but I’d obviously need to read The Importance of Being Married first!
