When Abby Reynolds loses her boyfriend, apartment and her job in a few consecutive months, she ends up having to high tail it from New York to her small Irish hometown Clonard to bunk with her sister for a few weeks/months, well as long as it takes. Struggling to come to terms with her luck, Abby gets reacquainted with an old friend called Luke but it's probably a bad idea to fall for someone local when she's looking for the next job out of town.

Catherine Walsh is fast becoming a firm favourite author of mine - this is the second book of hers I've read and I really love the way she writes characters and relationships and doesn't go too overboard with sex, cheese or even the third-act breakup. I loved Abby and really felt for what she was going through and a lot of the struggles she had with Luke also felt very relatable. I loved the vaster set of side characters such as Beth and Rory as well as Abby's sister Louise and her husband Tomaz - not to mention the strengthening relationship between Louise and Abby as well which was lovely to see.
