Dancing Over The Hill by Cathy Hopkins

Cait and Matt are a middle aged couple whom for them, life has settled into the mundane same old of work, particular clubs they're involved separately in, children who've flown the nest and moved away and meeting up with friends and family when they can and if they're still actually around to meet up with.

For Cait, she remembers their younger days and wishes for those to be how they are with each other now, if only. So when Lorna and Deb's her two closest friends pick up on Matt's behaviour alike Cait they're all equally surprised to learn of him being made redundant suddenly.

For Cait though, an old flame, first love Tom Lewis shows up on Facebook wanting to friend her and suddenly Cait is torn between her life now or Tom's way of 'adventure calling' life to choose from.

This is a rather push and pull story of how need and want but lack of communication makes a relationship suffer and especially in the case of Cait and Matt and the pair both start getting on top of each other alone in their house together a lot as the story plays out. I was happy however with how the plotline did work out and that their bond did strengthen after what happened and really found myself enjoying this book and felt sad when it ended!

Another great work by Cathy, after reading her all my teen life and now in adulthood too, it's great to see her work in adult fiction is as strong as her teen and children's fiction is too.

Many thanks to the publishers for allowing me to review this book for them!
