About this listen

 Shortlisted for the British Book Awards, Popular Fiction Award, 2009.

Lola Daly has just found out that her boyfriend - gorgeous, charming, and powerful politician Paddy de Courcy - is getting married. To someone else. Heartbroken, Lola flees Dublin to a cottage in the countryside. Can a new set of friends help her to get over him?

Journalist Grace Gildee wants the inside story on Paddy de Courcy's engagement. Lola refuses to talk the press but Grace won't give up. She knew Paddy a long time ago and hasn't forgotten him...

Marnie Hunter is Grace's twin sister. With a loving husband and two gorgeous daughters, Marnie seems to have it all. But she's haunted by memories. Memories that began with her first love - Paddy de Courcy. Can Marnie leave the past behind once and for all and move on with her life?

Alicia Thornton is Paddy's wife-to-be. Determined to be the perfect wife, Alicia would do anything for her fiancé. But does she know the real Paddy?

Four women. One man. And a secret that binds them all.

i was listening to this story whilst doing my embroidery. My husband came in to the room and started laughing in the right places. We ended up listening for the evening, the tv was quite and black in the corner.

A great story with intricacies and fun

This was a really good and interesting story which was well. Paced and kept you interested.
The only thing which spoiled the narrator is the fact that a large part of the story uses incorrect grammar / leaving out pronouns . This did irritate me to be honest and spoiled the enjoyment. I can’t remember this being on other books by this author so hope feedback may help. Otherwise excellent listen.

Excellent story , good voice for listening o
