In Erin's beachfront home in Ireland, I blink at my former best friends and laugh. Is it awkward we haven't seen each other in ten years and nobody really knows why? Yes. So I pull out the champagne with a flourish and start blasting our old playlist. It's a reunion weekend, after all. .. But it's not long before my determination to have fun starts to fizzle. Perhaps inviting new partners was a mistake. I'm already exhausted by Becky's new girlfriend, and Beth's husband is trying too hard with the compliments. No, I'm not trying out a "cool silver highlights" look. It's a grey hair. Still, at least the others have partners. The most exciting romantic development I can report is a quick flirt with a handsome stranger on the plane over. Even flighty, non-committal Tara is bringing someone. But if that wasn't surprising enough, I could never have anticipated Tara's 'someone' would be the man from my flight. If things weren't already awkward, they certainly are now. .. The weekend was meant to finally bring us all back together. But will this reunion only push us further apart? A hilarious and uplifting page-turner about the power (and pitfalls) of friendship and romance. Fans of rom-coms by Sophie Kinsella, Marian Keyes and Mhairi McFarlane will devour this laugh-out-loud tale. What readers are saying about Joanna Bolouri: 'The perfect summer read. ..
