One Red Hot Mama, two decades of toyboy adventures. A funny, warm, sexy, candid and bittersweet reflection on the highs and lows of autumn-spring liaisons.
One New Year's Eve, high in the Swiss Alps and high on cocktails, 42-year-old Wendy Salisbury found herself in a hotel room with a 19-year-old, celebrating in the best way possible. that first drink from the fountain of youth proved so intoxicating, she developed an unquenchable thirst, and for the next two decades, she continued to have sex and relationships with much younger men. As she herself says: 'I like older men but I couldn't eat a whole one. A younger man that's another story.'
Wendy Salisbury was born in London in 1946 to first-generation Russian Jewish immigrants. At 21, she married, had a daughter, divorced four years later, married again, and had another daughter. In 1995, aged 49, she met a 27-year-old with whom she lived for the next seven years. She began her monthly column in Absolute Marbella and Essential magazines on current affairs, social comment and womens issues, and appeared in a BBC documentary entitled 'Passion Never Dies'. Wendy has also had a career as an antiques dealer. She is currently researching the sequel to The Toyboy Diaries, entitled The Daily Male.
