Book Description

25 Jun 2009

What keeps you up all night?

They were high-school sweethearts who hadn't seen each other for seventeen years. And suddenly they're in front of each other - in a tiny sweet shop in the middle of nowhere. Neither can quite believe it.

These days, Petra works in London as a jeweller while Arlo has left his rock-and-roll lifestyle for the wilds of North Yorkshire. Out of the blue, their paths have just crossed. But for first love to have a second chance both must put their pasts to bed. However, there are skeletons in Arlo's closet which keep him up at night. And just what is it that causes Petra to sleepwalk?

Review

Praise for Freya North:

'North charts the ensuing emotional turmoil with a sexy exactitude' Marie Claire

'A very satisfying read' ***** Heat

'I defy anyone who doesn't fall in love with it!' Glamour

'Another North gem ' OK

‘An engrossing emotional drama that's sure to feature on best-seller lists’ Eve

‘If you like chick-lit with a generous side-helping of sex, you’ll devour this. An eye-poppingly sexy start leads into a family reunion laced with secrets. Tangled mother/daughter relationships unravel and tantalising family riddles keep you glued to the end ’ Cosmopolitan

‘Freya North has matured to produce an emotive novel that deals with the darker side of love – these are real women with real feelings’ She

‘Tantrums, tarts, tears and text-sex…what’s not to love about this cautionary tale for true romantics?’ Heat

‘A distinctive storytelling style and credible, loveable characters…an addictive read that encompasses the stuff life is made of: love, sex, fidelity and, above all, friendship’ Glamour

About the Author

Freya North gave up a Ph.D. to write her first novel, Sally. For four years she turned deaf ears to parents and friends who pleaded with her to "get a proper job". She went on the dole and did a succession of freelance and temping jobs. Five publishers entered a bidding war for the book, and her first novel, Sally, was published to great acclaim. Her subsequent books, Chloe, Polly, Cat, Fen, Pip , Love Rules, Home Truths and Pillow Talk have all proved bestsellers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful and unputdownable! 28 Aug 2007
Format:Paperback
Freya North just gets better and better. I am a hard woman to please these days - I generally fling a book to one side if it hasn't captured my attention within the first couple of pages. Life's too short to wade through wishy-washy writing when theres good stuff begging for attention. And Pillow Talk is excellent stuff. It has everything I enjoy in a book: interesting characters whose lives and words make me laugh, gasp or cry. Petra is essentially a Freya North 'typical' female character - nice with a few endearing quirky traits. Arlo, our hero and love interest is a man we'd all love to call our own. The people they call their friends are people I'd love to meet and spend time with. The time I spent with these delightful characters in Pillow Talk came to an end all too soon - but I can always go back, pick up my book and meet them again. It's that kind of book. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best read i've had in years! 24 July 2009
By Smelly
Format:Paperback
I look after a pair of lively 3 month old twins, and had found that I really needed something to kill the time between their naps. I came across this as a freebie in cosmo, and I can honestly say i've never been happier with magazine freebie. I generally tend to find that I read the first couple of pages from a book that I recieve at Christmas, before tossing it aside. However, Pillow Talk had me gripped from the first page and I found that I couldn't put it down, finishing it within the first two days. I have nothing but praise for this book, it being the first i've completed in a couple of years.
Love, sex, dramna and jewelry, theres not much more to life.
Pillow talk will have you cringing, biting the pillow, hastily, yet delightfully skimming pages, to finally being completely immersed in those raunchy parts ;) The characters were so realistic and likeable, I felt as though they were friends I had known all my life, and yet at the same time, were people I really wished I could meet.
10/10, 5 Stars, whichever you prefer, but I will definitely be going to buy the rest of her collection once i've finished this review, my highest praises to Freya North.

4.0 out of 5 stars Engrossing and interesting 12 Aug 2007
By SilentSinger TOP 1000 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
Having read some of Freya's early novels such as 'Cat', I gave up on her for a while as I found them to be a bit arty farty, but I was sent this book to review and really enjoyed it. It's the story of Petra, a jeweller who sleepwalks for no apparent reason. Throughout the book, she tries to discover what causes her condition, but along the way finds true love and a new direction for her career.

I'd recommend this book to all fans of womens' fiction - it's a good read.
