About this ebook
*** CONGRATULATIONS TO THE BRITISH BOOK AWARDS AUTHOR OF THE YEAR 2022***
Dive into the blissfully funny No. 1 bestseller about three women who find themselves criss-crossing the line between success and failure, happiness and sadness, sanity and madness, from the No. 1 bestselling author of Grown Ups
'Totally addictive . . . a real page turner' SUNDAY EXPRESS
'Brilliantly written and fabulously well-observed' INDEPENDENT
___________
'Dammit,' she realized. 'I think I'm having a nervous breakdown.'
Lisa Edwards' career as a hot-shot magazine editor is destined for high-rise New York, when suddenly she's blown off-course into the delights of low-rise Dublin. But what on earth can she do about it?
Ashling Kennedy, Lisa's super-organized assistant, is good at worrying. Too good. She's even terrified of a little bit of raw fish . . .
Clodagh Kelly is Ashling's best friend and has done everything right: beautiful kids and a husband come prince - everything in fact that Ashling has ever wanted. She should be happy. But she isn't.
Three women on the verge of happiness and even closer to a complete breakdown . . .
Which way will they fall?
___________
'Keyes has given romantic comedy a much-needed face-lift. Chatty and warmhearted, Keyes's talent is to tell it how it is' Independent
'Laden with plots twists, jokey asides and nicely turned bits of zeitgeisty observational humour' Guardian
'The voice of a generation' Daily Mirror
