THE NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER
'Give yourself a break from the doom and gloom and get stuck into this cracker of a novel' Image
It's been years since Julie had a full night's sleep. She's devoted to her family, but with four boys under five, it can be easier to relate to strangers in an online mums' forum than her glamorous sisters.
High-flying lawyer Louise has been independent since turning eighteen. After one drunken mistake leads to consequences way outside of her comfort zone, can she finally ask her sisters for help?
And gorgeous Sophie's diamonds-and-champagne lifestyle is falling apart at the seams. She can hardly bring herself to tell the other two how bad things are.
The Devlins might not always see eye to eye, but they might have more in common than they think . . .
'Moving, disarmingly honest and at times laugh-out-loud funny' Sunday Times
'Witty, touching, easy to read . . . I thought I might like this one, but I really and truly loved it' thebookbag.co.uk
'The inevitable comparisons with Marian Keyes are justified and well deserved ... a brilliant book . . . You'll identify with elements of all the characters, guffaw in parts and scowl in others' Heat
'Anyone with a sister will identify with this . . . funny and touching story' Closer

Moriarty hits the nail on the head with every maternal anecdote. From post-natal depression to booking a one way ticket, drinking too much and eating too little, she truly captures the essence of what it feels like to be a Mum. I laughed so many times reading this, a fab storyline executed brilliantly!
