Dirty Laundry plunges readers deep into the trenches of parenthood with Emma, a once-confident woman turned frazzled mum who hasn’t peed alone since 2017. Through her raw, hilarious, and slightly unhinged inner monologue, we witness the chaos, the exhaustion, and the love that somehow survives on caffeine and sarcasm.

Just when you think her husband Dan is the clueless partner who snores through night feeds, the story flips and suddenly, we see his side. He’s just as lost, just as desperate to reconnect, and just as terrified that their best years might now be spent arguing over the dishwasher.

What follows is a painfully funny, heartfelt, and
unexpectedly spicy look at marriage, complete with lingerie mishaps, mistimed dirty talk, and toe-curlingly awkward sex scenes you’ll read through your fingers.

Told with brutal honesty and laugh-out-loud humour, Dirty Laundry is a painfully relatable, unexpectedly spicy, and awkwardly tender exploration of marriage, miscommunication, and rediscovering intimacy one disastrous date night at a time.

Perfect for fans of Fleishman Is in Trouble and Why Mummy Drinks.
