From the author of the UK bestselling comedy: Sex, Lies and Chocolate Cakes.
Eric Baxter doesn't ask for much. All he wants is to get his leg-over occasionally with his wife, Helen, and to lose enough weight to be able to see his genitals without having to hold his stomach out of the way.
So when Carol - a randy work colleague and fellow food lover who almost seduced him the night before - turns up at his home and introduces herself to his wife, he begins to wonder whether life is playing a cruel practical joke on him. As Carol seems determined to make his life a misery for turning her down, and he's about to discover something's going horribly wrong in the trouser department too, he could very well be right.
If that weren’t enough to have him reaching for the comfort food, he also has to contend with a randy oversexed son who's using the soapy bathroom sponge for something other than cleaning purposes. Plus a teenage daughter who having just discovered boys has started dating a six foot ginger gorilla with huge bushy sideburns. Not forgetting his continuing battle with his neighbour’s cat, a vengeful pigeon, a gang of feral children and a vigilante sausage dog.
Lust, Lies and Lemon Cakes Too: The continuing tale of taxi driver Eric Baxter's daily struggle with life, love, and his ever expanding waistline, as he tries to come to terms with middle age. A funny light summer read about dieting, weight loss, love, lust and romance that'll have you laughing from the first page to the last.
Described as a middle-aged Adrian Mole and a male Bridget Jones. This fictional comedy memoir is a perfect read for fans of Sue Townsend, Helen Fielding, or Nick Spalding.
