SEXY AND COMFORTABLE … CAN YOU REALLY HAVE BOTH?
From the Sunday Times bestselling author of Just My Luck and Both Of You, this is a gripping novel about two very different sisters, which asks: is there such a thing as a perfect life or the perfect love?
The Evergreen sisters have always been opposites.
Martha is married and has the perfect home and family. Eliza rents a drab one-bedroom flat, which she shares with her sexy but hapless boyfriend.
Until, one day, Eliza walks out on him, the very same day that Martha's husband walks out on her. Suddenly the Evergreen sisters are united by separation.
Eliza is free to pursue the relationship she's always wanted; one that offers stability and security. Martha falls into a relationship that she could never have imagined; it's crazy and carefree.
Can they find happiness dashing down these new paths? Or does chasing love only get more complicated when you're running in another woman's shoes?

But the Black Diamond assassin Mai has been called back to face his punishment for sparing her life.

'Let the wind take me and the soft rain settle me into the Irish soil from where I came. And may my sins be forgiven.'
Arethusa Clayton has always been formidable, used to getting her own way. On her death, she leaves unexpected instructions. Instead of being buried in America, on the wealthy East Coast where she and her late husband raised their two children, Arethusa has decreed that her ashes be scattered in a remote corner of Ireland, on the hills overlooking the sea.
All Arethusa ever told Faye was that she grew up in a poor farming family and left Ireland, alone, to start a new life in America as did so many in those times of hardship and famine. But who were her family in Ireland and where are they now? What was the real reason that she turned away from them? And who is the mysterious benefactor of a significant share of Arethusa's estate?
Arethusa is gone. There is no one left to tell her story. Faye feels bereft, as if her mother's whole family has died with her. Leaving her own husband and children behind, she travels to the picturesque village of Ballinakelly, determined to fulfil her mother's last wish and to find out the reason for Arethusa's insistence on being laid to rest in this faraway land.
