ReviewsI'm so pleased to have found Ciara! What a wonderful book - I loved it. I thought it had such heart and depth, and the characters were so real. I genuinely didn't want it to end. - Lucy Diamond My favourite author does it again in this superbly written perceptive, poignant novel that makes you laugh and cry! Oh, I envy you the read of this. Treat yourself to a brilliant book! - Patricia Scanlan Ciara Geraghty is a superb writer . . . She's the Irish Jojo Moyes, of Me Before You fame. Like Moyes, her books are meticulously researched, beautifully written, and infused with warmth, humour and human understanding. - Irish Examiner I love Ciara's writing style and although her books are easy to read there's always a deeper story behind them. This one touches on life, love and parenting. It's full of warmth and humour and you'll read it in a couple of sittings! - Sheila O'Flanagan A touching, tender, often funny story about love in all its messy, uncertain glory . . . with a hero who will find a place in your heart. - Julie Cohen A smart, realistic and gritty love story . . . You will feel all the feelings - we can't remember the last time we rooted for two characters quite as much. Geraghty also deals very sensitively with mental health problems, and goes out of her way not to paint the other halves in the broken relationships as "baddies" . . . A romantic story with its feet firmly planted in the grittiness of real life. - Heat The dialogue is sharp, fast and witty, and the characters are an astute depiction of people who are going through periods of personal change. Geraghty has a keen eye for human interaction, which makes this novel a joy to read. This is a heartwarming tale that will have you laughing and crying in equal measures. - The Lady magazine A tender story that strikes touching themes. - Irish Mirror
