Mother, writer, worker, sister, friend, citizen, daughter, (sort of) wife. If she could be one, perhaps she could manage. Trying to be all, she found she was none.
Coralie grew up in Australia but needed to escape some ghosts. Adrift in London, she meets witty, sexy, generous Adam-and his charming four-year-old daughter. Falling in love is fun. And then?
Coralie yearns for children of her own, and to become a writer. But her trips back to Australia change her perspective. Ten years on, something essential is missing.
In this unforgettable story about what 'happily ever after' might truly mean, Jessica Stanley writes about life as we live it, and reveals how our intimate dramas can get tangled up with the public events of our times.
An honest, entertaining and intelligent portrait of a woman in love, Consider Yourself Kissed will capture your heart.
