Pasta-fanatic, girl-next-door Faye Bonsu is back for another adventure in love, life and culture!

Faye Bonsu seems to have it all: a drop-dead gorgeous and successful boyfriend, a bourgeoning career as an interior designer and a rent-free mansion in leafy Hampstead to call home. But with all her friends shifting into yummy-mummy mode, a man who seems to have no desire to put a ring on it, tricky clients, and a very attractive and single boss, things are not quite as simple as they might appear.
Hoping to escape from her suddenly complicated life and revive her wilting romance, Faye returns to sunny Ghana for what she hopes will be the time of her life. But life doesn't always offer second chances and when disaster strikes, she is forced to confront the biggest question of her life and to make a choice that comes with consequences she will have to live with forever.

Frances Mensah Williams CBE spent her early childhood between the USA, Austria, and Ghana before settling in the UK. An avid scribbler, her acclaimed first novel From Pasta to Pigfoot was published in 2015, with a sequel - From Pasta to Pigfoot: Second Helpings - soon following in 2016 (both Jacaranda Books). Her third novel, Imperfect Arrangements (2020), was followed by the Marula Heights series of standalone novellas, River Wild and Sweet Mercy, set in contemporary Ghana.

An entrepreneur, Consultant, Executive Coach, and TEDx speaker, Frances is also the author of three non-fiction careers books and the publisher of careers portal www.ReConnectAfrica.com. She is a passionate advocate for skills development and has written extensively on careers and business relating to Africa and the African diaspora. She has received awards for innovation in business and skills development, culminating in the CBE awarded by Queen Elizabeth II in the 2020 New Year's Honours List for services to Africans in the UK and in Africa.
