The Runaway Wives is Karen King’s latest novel, her first ‘golden years’ novel, published via Boldwood Books. She also writes psychological suspense for Bookouture and women’s fiction for Boldwood.
‘We’re leaving. And there’s nothing either of you can do about it!’
When the surprise holiday Dee thinks her husband has booked for her sixtieth birthday weekend turns out to be yet another solo golfing break – it’s the last straw.
Meanwhile her best friend Babs’s other half has decided to move to Spain and is acting like he doesn’t need to consult anyone. Not even Babs!
Well, if their husbands think they can do what they want, so can their wives. So, with that thought, the two best friends leap into Dee’s trusty car and head for the seaside, and an adventure they’ll never forget.
Back home their furious husbands want them to return immediately. But – as they begin to enjoy their newfound freedom – will either of the runaway wives ever want to come back home again?

The Runaway Wives is the story of two best friends, and is like a big warm hug. Karen King absolutely nails the feeling of friendship-fueled rebellion — but in the most heartwarming, empowering, and often hilarious way.
There’s something so refreshing about two women deciding they don’t have to shrink themselves to fit into someone else’s plans, especially at a time in life when society tries to tell them they should just “settle.
The story has the perfect balance of laugh-out-loud moments and authentic emotional beats that make you want to hug these characters and tell them to keep going. It’s light, funny, and feel-good without being fluffy.
