Rachel Walsh is a survivor: she survived rehab and the loss of her greatest love. These days everything in her life is good - good job, good dog, very good boyfriend. Then Luke - her ex of six years - shows up. Suddenly she's fragile and falling.

They ended badly and neither can speak of the secret hurt which drove them apart. But is it fear of what happened? Or what might happen next?

Back in the long ago nineties, Rachel Walsh was a mess.
But a spell in rehab transformed everything. Life became very good, very quickly. These days, Rachel has love, family, a great job as an addiction counsellor, she even gardens. Her only bad habit is a fondness for expensive trainers.
But with the sudden reappearance of a man she'd once loved, her life wobbles.
She'd thought she was settled. Fixed forever. Is she about to discover that no matter what our age, everything can change?
Is it time to think again, Rachel?

Кто-то может назвать это разрывом, но Хью, мой муж, говорит, что это просто «перерыв». Пауза. И никакой это не развод, нет. Просто Хью немного устал и взял шестимесячный отпуск от семьи и домашних проблем. Чтобы отдохнуть и… как он это называет? «Разобраться в себе». Да, именно так… Я не могу изменить его решение. Но для меня это огромное испытание. Ведь я совсем не устала от Хью… Ну, разве что чуточку. Да и за шесть месяцев может произойти всякое. Вдруг Хью изменится настолько, что я не узнаю в нем того человека, за которого вышла замуж? А что, если и я сама изменюсь?.. Ведь если Хью устроил перерыв, почему бы и мне не сделать то же самое?..

If only.
Amy's husband Hugh says he isn't leaving her.
He still loves her, he's just taking a break - from their marriage, their children and, most of all, from their life together. Six months to lose himself in south-east Asia. And there is nothing Amy can say or do about it.
Yes, it's a mid-life crisis, but let's be clear: a break isn't a break up - yet...
However, for Amy it's enough to send her - along with her extended family of gossips, misfits and troublemakers - teetering over the edge.
For a lot can happen in six-months. When Hugh returns if he returns, will he be the same man she married? And will Amy be the same woman?
Because if Hugh is on a break from their marriage, then isn't she?
The Break isn't a story about falling in love but about staying in love. It is Marian Keyes at her funniest, wisest and brilliant best.

One day, sitting in traffic, married Dublin mum Stella Sweeney attempts a good deed. The resulting car crash changes her life.

For she meets a man who wants her telephone number (for the insurance, it turns out). That's okay. She doesn't really like him much anyway (his Range Rover totally banjaxed her car).

But in this meeting is born the seed of something which will take Stella thousands of miles from her old life, turning an ordinary woman into a superstar, and, along the way, wrenching her whole family apart.

Is this all because of one ill-advised act of goodwill? Was meeting Mr Range Rover destiny or karma? Should she be grateful or hopping mad?

Utterly compelling, moving and very, very funny, "The Mystery of Mercy Close" is the story of courageous, vulnerable and wasptongued private investigator Helen Walsh. When a missing-persons case draws her into the dark, glamorous world of her dodgy ex, Jay Parker, Helen finds she's seeing more of him and less of Artie Devlin, her sexy detective boyfriend. Caught between smart, stable Artie and chaotic, up-for-anything Jay - two different, equally enticing men - and plagued by her own black doubts, Helen finds she's beginning to believe in something. But is it fear, or is it love?

Персонажи романа - жители дома 66. Сорокалетняя дамочка и ее нерешительный бойфренд, привлекательный садовник, острая на язык таксистка, двое мускулистых приятелей-поляков, молодожены, хранящие ужасный секрет... За всеми ними зорко наблюдает некто таинственный. Придет время, и он сделает выбор, который изменит чью-то жизнь раз и навсегда.

Helen Walsh doesn’t believe in fear – it’s just a thing invented by men to get all the money and good job – and yet she’s sinking. Her work as a Private Investigator has dried up, her flat has been repossessed and now some old demons have resurfaced.

Not least in the form of her charming but dodgy ex-boyfriend Jay Parker, who shows up with a missing persons case. Money is tight – so tight Helen’s had to move back in with her elderly parents – and Jay is awash with cash. The missing person is Wayne Diffney, the ‘Wacky One’ from boyband Laddz. He’s vanished from his house in Mercy Close and it’s vital that he’s found – Laddz have a sell-out comeback gig in five days’ time.

Things ended messily with Jay. And she’s never going back there. Besides she has a new boyfriend now, the very sexy detective Artie Devlin and it’s all going well, even though his ex-wife isn’t quite ‘ex’ enough and his teenage son hates her. But the reappearance of Jay is stirring up all kinds of stuff she thought she’d left behind.

Playing by her own rules, Helen is drawn into a dark and glamorous world, where her worst enemy is her own head and where increasingly the only person she feels connected to is Wayne, a man she’s never even met.
