Suzi Frazier doesn’t want the life mapped out for her. Boyfriend Matt wants her to be sensible and settle down. But Suzi wants more from her life. She knows something is missing. But what is it?
Dear Eve
I’ve got our dream job – flying round the world, staying in expensive hotels and paid to do it! But it's Matt. He wants babies! I’ve got to see what else is out there before I get sick on my shoulder, baby wipes in my handbag and droopy bags for boobs. I changed my life to become a flight attendant…how else could I get to drink rum punch on a pirate ship, come face-to-face with a polar bear and bring a dead man back to life? I love my job but things aren’t working out as either of us planned, and that was before I met Ed Mc Ewan. But he’s already attached. Confused? So am I? Something’s got to give – but what’s it going to be? Help me Eve.
Love, Suzi x

Review of LOVE SUZI x by Kirsty at 'Love of a Good Book'
I love books that tell the story in a unique way and LOVE SUZI x is no exception, told through a series of letters, we follow Suzi as she transforms her life and travels all over the world in her career as a flight attendant. This is a wondrous story that I found myself relating to instantly, the need to explore, to seek out adventures and follow your dreams is something I think most people can relate to at one point or another,
I loved Suzi, her character really comes across in the letters, you get a strong essence of the personality behind by the pen.
In fact, it’s a credit to Teresa Hamilton that all the characters manage to get their personalities into the letters.
There was a great mix of characters, but I really disliked Candy, it felt to me as though she was borderline crazy.
I was crazy for the beautiful descriptions of the places Suzi visits, which left me dreaming of booking a holiday or just running away to somewhere picturesque and exotic.
The flow of the letters and the pace of the story feed in brilliantly to what was an ending I hadn’t foreseen.
5/5

Review of LOVE SUZI x by Chick-Lit Reviews and News
Wow – where to begin reviewing this book. It has the most amazing ending, which changed my view of various parts of the action and has left most of my notes in a scrunched up ball in the bin! No spoilers of course! But now it’s quite difficult to review.
Love Suzi x is nicely written and since the author is an ex air hostess herself the anecdotes are, although highly amusing, quite believable. I understand that not all of them are actually true but I challenge you to work out the fact from the fantasy.
I liked Suzi as a character and I was happy to be taken on her ride both physically and metaphorically – enjoyed the fun and felt for her with the jet lag; I was jealous of the exotic locations and not of the bitchiness and the hangovers. She jumps from crush to crush but that does fit with the character and her impulsive nature and desire to live life to the full. The only real question being how on earth did she get stuck with the dull and negative Matt in the first place?
The building of her relationship with First Officer Ed is charming although I did find him a bit cheesy (and I would certainly have wanted him to sort out his personal life a bit sooner if I’d been Suzy!)
Love Suzy x is an easy to read, amusing, light novel that would be ideal, appropriately, to take on a long haul flight with you. I would say that it was a bit too light and fluffy (Amazon describes it as hen lit but I’m not sure why – Suzy is a chick as far as I’m concerned!) but the ending does change all that. It gives you pause for thought and adds some depth to the whole read.

Reiew of LOVE SUZI x by Author Alliance
Love, Suzi x is well written, and loads of fun.
Suzi is likeable, real and hilarious! I laughed out loud throughout and thoroughly enjoyed her diary-like letters to Eve illustrating her adventures as she steps out of her comfort zone and travels the world as a stewardess. Suzi's descriptions of the beautiful places she visits and antics she gets up to with the rest of the crew made me want jump on a plane and just go! Exciting as it is, there are negatives to this life in the skies and she is not without doubts. Suzi manages it all with humor and avoidance making her that much more genuine, but her focus remains on taking the chance and living out her dream.
I recommend Love, Suzi x to anyone looking for an amusing and insightful story.'
