Jodi Taylor brings all her comic writing skills to this heart-warming tale of self-discovery. Known as “The Nothing Girl” because of her severe stutter and chronically low self-confidence, Jenny Dove is only just prevented from ending it all by the sudden appearance of Thomas, a mystical golden horse only she can see. Under his guidance, Jenny unexpectedly acquires a husband – the charming and chaotic Russell Checkland – and for her, nothing will ever be the same again. With over-protective relatives on one hand and the world’s most erratic spouse on the other, Jenny needs to become Someone. And fast! Fans of Jodi Taylor’s best-selling Chronicles of St Mary’s series will adore the quirky humour in this new, contemporary novel.

Jenny is The Nothing Girl. She lives with her aunt and uncle who protect her from the world and from being institutionalized. Her cousin Francesca has a brilliant life but has dropped her boyfriend artist Russell Checkland for TV producer Daniel Palmer. Russell unfortunately does not take this well and becomes a drunkard. Jenny bumps into him by accident and they meet up several times at Frogmorton Farm where she helps him decorate. He puts his cards on the table when he asks her to marry him. He needs her inheritance and she needs to get away from her aunt and uncle. She says yes and then all hell breaks loose.

This book is funny, serious and nasty all in one go. There are several hilarious characters: Marilyn, the ever hungry donkey, Boxer the neurotic horse, the tipsy housekeeper and various other waifs and strays both Jenny and Russell collect along the way. Then of course there’s Thomas, Jenny’s imaginary horse. However, someone is trying to either hurt or kill Jenny and she believes it might be Russell.

The ending (without giving any spoilers) is totally unexpected. A lovely cozy book to read with a hint of humor and a little bit of spine chilling suspense. I am definitely going to read this a second time as I enjoyed it so much the first read.
