Sally Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club

By Sienna Waters

One boring housewife. One chaotic entrepreneur. One idea that can change everything. Oh, and a monkey.

Sally Pepper has never finished anything in her life. Mobile dog grooming, tanning salons, relationships, she starts things with enthusiasm and walks away when they get hard. It’s not just a pattern, it’s a lifestyle choice at this point.

Violet Weaver has never done anything unplanned. Schedules, spreadsheets, a decade of sensible wifehood. Until her husband calls her boring, and for the first time in years, she does something impulsive: she leaves.

Then Violet accidentally walks into Sally’s newest venture, a lonely hearts club, instead of her Tuesday French class, and they end up striking a deal. Sally teaches spontaneity, Violet brings organization.

The only problem? Sally thinks Violet’s amazing but straight, and Violet thinks Sally’s incredible but uninterested. Throw in some interfering club members, a couple of sisters with the best intentions, a stolen lemur, and the biggest spider this side of the Outback and, well, obviously things don’t go as planned…

Sally Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club is a laugh-out-loud, opposites-attract sapphic romcom about learning to stay, letting go, and the unexpected perils of safari parks, featuring a very happy ending, from bestselling Sapphic writer Sienna Waters, author of The Farmer Has a Wife, For My Finale, and The Wedding That Almost Wasn’t.
