She’s lived by the rules. Now she's breaking them . . .

For more than eighty years, Joy Bridport has followed the rules - devoted wife, loving mother, steadfast neighbour in her small town. But when her best friend Hazel is given only months to live, Joy is forced to confront the truth: Hazel has lived fully, while she has only played it safe. Determined to change, Joy vows to live boldly in the time she and Hazel have left together.

What begins as small rebellions soon snowball into petty crimes, and Joy must decide whether she can embrace the freedom of 'Bad Joy' without losing the life and legacy she's built. With humour, heart, and irresistible mischief, Good Joy, Bad Joy is a heartwarming and inspiring celebration of the choices we make, the friendships we cherish, and the lengths we go for love.
