In
the Irish village of Burnaby, life is about to change for three very different
women.
Molly
Harper is the long-suffering manager of Ireland's only dedicated romance
bookshop, "Happily Ever After." She can't stand Milo Jones, the
super-smooth new owner, but he does have a rather attractive son, Sam. Should
she stay or should she walk?
Her
best friend, Paige Brady, has problems of her own. She's just launched a
general election campaign and is astonished when another candidate, Annette
Higgins, starts to attack her in a very personal way. But Paige
is determined to stay in the race.
Kate
Bewan, shop assistant in the trendy Burnaby designer shoe shop ' Baroque' by
day, runs the popular dummy dating service 'Dublin Dummy Dates' by night. But
one particular client is proving to be more than a handful.
But
all's fair in love, politics and business as the three friends are about to
find out. Enter the world of Burnaby Village and you'll be glad you stayed
because sometimes finding yourself is only the start of the adventure.
This
book was a brilliant read! I loved it so much that I read it in a day!
It was
fast paced but easy to keep up with.
It
follows the lives of three friends who are all very different. Their stories
are told and leave you guessing as to what might happen next.
It shows love and
war through politics and business but at the same time, it shows laughs and
memories which everyone would want to last forever.
Not only does it show the
typical life of a person but it shows the troubles that you just don't want to
face.
Having not read any books by Sarah Webb before, I was unsure on what it would
be like. However, it was gripping from the first sentence right the way through
to the end. In fact, I just wanted to read more and I was sad when it was over.
If you get the opportunity to read this book, do
it. It is a decision that you won't regret and one that will make you laugh and
smile, even on the hardest days.
I think this is a book I will be reading again
for sure.
What a lovely review, thanks so much, Samantha. It's one of my older books in fact - the latest are The Shoestring Club and The Memory Box.
