Can love at first sight last a lifetime?

A brilliant, feel-good bestseller about love, marriage and what comes next, from the author of THE MISSING WIFE. Perfect for readers of Kerry Lonsdale, Liane Moriarty and Jamie Beck.

When Carey Browne decides it's time for a holiday and flies into New York City - one of her favourite shopping destinations - she knows she'll have a good time. What she doesn't know is that she's about to have the biggest adventure of her life. Within days she's met and married Ben Russell, and a week later they're heading back together to Dublin, where they both live, to share the happy news with family and friends. Except not everyone's thrilled. And not everyone's convinced this is really more than a holiday romance.

Carey and Ben are about to discover whether they've found the kind of love that can survive a blast of reality...

Good story

I had such high hopes for this book, but it was a let down in so many ways. First of all the vast majority of the character names were not authentic Dublin names so it made the characters less relatable. Also the author has a habit of leaving you on some kind of cliff hanger at the end of a chapter, starting the next chapter in a completely different scenario and not going back to resolve the original cliffhanger in a satisfying way. I did not form an attachment to any of the characters and therefore I could not root for any of them. Some of the scenes that the author wrote defied belief and it was very frustrating to listen - the main one being the ex girlfriend at the wedding party. The narrator did a pretty good job,but for spicy scenes a middle-aged woman reading a young man did not really land well. This book was far too long - not much happened and it could have been condensed. I was honestly surprised this was a best seller because there was a lot of things that an editor should have caught before publication.

Disappointing and unauthentic
