Life for Rent - Paperback

by Wendy Morris (Author)

From humble beginnings in a small country town to rubbing shoulders with celebrities in London's Park Lane, Wendy's journey in hotel management is nothing short of extraordinary.

How did she escape her working-class roots to find herself in a world of luxury? And why did a lingering sense of shame shadow her success?

From a young age, Wendy's father imparted a fierce work ethic and a spirit of feminine independence to his daughter. Yet, their relationship became complex over the years.

In this riveting memoir spanning six decades, Wendy chronicles her adventures and adversities as a pioneering woman in the challenging hospitality industry. She candidly reveals family dysfunction and the mental health issues that simmered from an early age which nearly derailed her path in later years.

It is also a story of the loves and losses which shaped her journey, including two very special 'boys' who were constant companions for 15 years.

Life for Rent is a powerful reflection of Wendy's unconventional path, which saw her defy societal expectations and forge a unique path in life.
