Silk

accreditation
Silk by Rupert James (Ebury Press)
Isabelle is a young designer, in love with the colours and textures of the fabrics she uses. Her mother, Christine, is a top divorce lawyer, hoping to become Queen's counsel or 'make silk'.

How these two very different women search for meaning and success makes for a fascinating backdrop to the book's real story: who's having sex with who. Boys with girls, girls with girls, boys with boys, whichever way you fancy, author Rupert James has imagined it and described it.

Bonk rating aside, this is a rather more robust type of chicklit story, combining frilly fashion with courtroom grit. Silk is smooth reading, amusing, and worth buying for those summer evenings on the balcony.
