The Resurrection of Flo

Having devoted thirty years to her role as wife and mother, Flo finds herself in unfamiliar waters when her husband's lurid affair brings an end to their seemingly perfect marriage. Heartbroken and empty, the once-aspiring actress – now fifty-four – faces an unforeseen turning point in her life. Struggling to come to terms with her future as a single woman, Flo sinks into a depression. Yet with wise words and a reality shake-up from her immediate family, she finds the inner strength to rise above the bitterness and the lies and embraces her newly-single life. Stepping back in time to pick up her lost career, Flo emerges from the flames to connect with old contacts, rekindle friendships and meet new faces. With an ambitious spirit – along with plenty of wine and laughter – she begins to craft a positive new life and jumps headfirst into the dating game. Can Flo find the true love of her life, or will the men she meets along the way put her off romance forever? The Resurrection of Flo is the poignant, engaging and, at times, hilarious debut novel from Jo Wood.
