“Why on earth am I here?” David wonders as he observes the juvenile antics of ex-classmates at the twenty-five year school reunion. Then he sees Bridget.
David draws up a list of all that he hopes to achieve to kick-start a new life now that his wife has moved in with his best friend – his ex-best friend. A relationship with Bridget is top of the list, opening an arts café is a close second.
Formidable women – an unfaithful wife, a reckless teenage daughter, a boss from hell, a disapproving policewoman – seem like insurmountable obstacles.
But it’s still OK to dream, isn’t it?
” I really felt for David. His relationships and interactions with his children, his daughter especially, his ex-wife, ex-friend, and his mother were so well drawn, and each and every word dragged me in deep and deeper until I was fully immersed in the story. I can’t recommend this highly enough.” Lilac Mills, author of the Tanglewood Village series
” R J Gould has the most delightful skill of writing his books in a way in which you feel very quickly that you are reading about a friend. I couldn’t put it down and found myself missing Dream Cafe long after I read the last page.” Book Addiction UK
” The characters are instantly recognisable and relatable. They remind you of people you could know in real life. The author has brought serious issues – divorce, lone parenting, a man’s role within the family home – and dealt with them using emotion and humour.” Sharon’s Beyond the Books
” I absolutely love R J Gould’s easy style. Without writing reams of detail, he manages to effortlessly create characters that jump off the page. This is done through witty and well-placed interactions and narrations from the main character. I was rooting for David’s happiness throughout this wonderful book.” Iheartbooks1991
“I love this book! Tender, witty, funny, with characters you can totally relate to. A story about trust, resilience, forgiveness and fresh starts, narrated with humour and insight. It kept my interest hooked and made me smile all the way through. A great read!”
