Wags at the World Cup

Wags at the World Cup
Tracie Martin is the true queen of the Wags—and this is going to be her year. The fight may be on for England to regain their rightful place in the history books. But Tracie knows that the true battle of the World Cup will be fought in Gucci and in the pages of her favorite tabloids. Only with Tracie’s knack of ending up in the papers for all the wrong reasons, she finds herself getting more column inches than the England captain as she becomes the only person who can save England’s dreams of World Cup triumph. But can she warn off the evil crime syndicate threatening to destroy everything? And, more importantly, what earrings should she wear?

This was a laugh a minute, fun-filled, colourful book of an imaginary loveable Wag (and Wags) at the World Cup. Loads of 'real' Wags are in it and there is a hysterical scene where Tracie Martin accidentally kidnaps Coleen's baby. As for the clothes and fake tan... it's a whole other world.

I read it in a day and laughed a lot, in a good way - just what I bought it for, the author clearly knows her sport.

A great read, exactly what it says on the tin.
