For the majority of her adult life, Quinn Boothroyd has heeded to a to-do list that she has every intention of completing before she turns thirty. With each new adventure, she finds utter satisfaction in checking off yet another box as she successfully navigates life's daily struggles. According to her, everything boils down to a simple list that can easily be accomplished if one is determined to do so. With always a plan on the horizon, her life is quite predictable and pleasant.

Just as the thought of becoming a mother finally becomes a reality to Quinn, she finds herself confined to bed for three months or risk delivering a premature baby. How can she, a successful attorney, just turn off the instinctive drive to go, go, and go? On second thought, when is the last time she actually has had time to sit down and simply think?

In her first novel, Sarah Bilston hits upon every emotion as she hysterically tells the tale of every mom-to-be who has been ordered to bed rest. With her zany characters, such as Brianna and Mrs. G, to her delightful heroine, Quinn, Bilston hits the mark with her truly addictive storytelling that makes the reader want for more. The sibling rivalry among the sisters is so real that its absurdity is absolutely believable. Light, entertaining and moving! Bilston's readers will be on the edge of their seats awaiting the sequel. BED REST is surely a winner!
