About this listen

The wonderful and heartwarming new novel full of secrets, lies and family ties from Sunday Times best-selling author Cathy Kelly.

Bess is hoping to show everyone just how happy her recent marriage is, but behind all the party planning the cracks are beginning to show. Why is joining a family so difficult?

Jojo, Bess' stepdaughter, has a point to make. Bess is not her mother, and she won't replace the one she's been missing every day for the last two years. And will she ever get the chance to become a mum herself?

Cousin Cari is a fierce career woman who isn't unnerved by anything - apart from facing the man who left her at the altar, and he's on the guest list. Her job has been a safe place to hide ever since - but is it time to let love into her life again? Thanks to laughter, tears and one surprise appearance, the Brannigans might just discover the secrets of a happy marriage...but will they find out before it's too late?

Read by Caroline Lennon.

Critic reviews

Wise, warm, compassionate and full of characters I loved ... it's like having a great gossip with your best friends (Marian Keyes)

Just brilliant. I was unsure because of some of the less positive reviews about it being boring & having too many characters but I loved it, enjoyed the story & didn't find it difficult to follow at all.

Brilliant.

I do love the story. The narrator is fantastic and I couldn’t wait to see how the story unfolded . I am missing the characters in the book already . Cathy Kelly is now one of my favourite authors.

A must read

Cathy does it again!. Being Welsh with Irish ancestors,as we all claim to have,brings you in again to the laughter and love of ordinary family life.Carolin Lennon translates Cathy's books with outstanding feeling for what the author wants to portray.Well done to both.cant wait for my next credit from audible.

Loved it. Narrator really good. Loved the accent. Brought authenticity to an Irish writer's book.

Funny, humorous look at life

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
I'm normally a big fan of Cathy Kelly and was exited about this book, but it was just laborious to get through. Too many characters, not enough focus on a central plot, it felt like digging through an attic full of junk hoping to find something great but never really getting anything but tired.

Disappointing
