Sometimes what you want isn't always what you need
When Matt decides to uproot his family and move to
Ireland, his wife Hope has no choice but to go with him.
But their move is a far cry from the rustic romantic
life that he promised - with Matt spending every day at
the local arts centre, Hope has to look after the
children on her own in their small run-down cottage,
miles away her friends. It's not long before she's
desperately lonely and she's got nowhere to turn. Back
in London, her sister Sam is completely different.
Brittle and sharp, she's a mover and a shaker, with a
fantastic job as the managing director of a major record
label. Having decided she's never going to be anybody's
accessory, she oozes a well-practiced unapproachable
air. But just as Hope is having to reassess her life and
learn to be stronger and more independent, so Sam is
forced to reshuffle the pieces of her world ...Wild
child Nicole Turner reckoned that she'd still be going
for wild party nights with the girls, maybe singing a
bit of karaoke, possibly snogging a guy here or there,
and trying not to get fired for using the office phone
to make personal phone calls.And grandmother Virginia
Connell thought she'd still be happily married to her
beloved Bill, teasing him for spending too much time on
the golf course and not enough time walking the dog or
cutting the grass. But they were all wrong. When life
changes suddenly for each of these four women, thay have
to look deep inside themselves to discover what they
really want in order to survive the turmoil. And they
discover that a sense of belonging, a loving family and
good friends can make all the difference. |
