The Man Who Fell in Love with His Wife by Paul Burke
Frank Dempsey is back - but this time as a father of a very different kind! Newly-wed Frank Dempsey, a former non-believing Catholic priest, can now luxuriate in the sublime joys of his wife's arms and the paradise of silk versus sackcloth. Yet Frank isn't off-duty from charitable deeds - when he isn't driving his black cab for a local taxi firm, he is in hot demand to speak at weddings, christenings and funerals. Or to inspire people to flock to the dancefloor with his skills as a DJ. From the Big Apple to the bitten apple, Frank soon discovers that the tempting sins of the flesh have consequences; when Frank becomes a real father, he realises he is going to need a miracle to feed the five thousand!

It all has a Richard Curtis-esque veneer ... it works because it's real' Sunday Express on The Man Who Fell in Love with His Wife 'Laughs a-plenty as former Father Frank Dempsey copes with being a dad' Daily Mirror on The Man Who Fell in Love with His Wife 'A very skilful practitioner of a genre hitherto dominated by Nick Hornby and Tony Parsons ... this novel should secure his position in that particular literary gang' Time Out on The Man Who Fell in Love with His Wife 'Like a gift from heaven' OK! on The Man Who Fell in Love with His Wife 'A perfect gem of warmth and humour with a charming twist, it is highly addictive and worthy of mass recommendation.'
