Rachel Walsh a régvolt kilencvenes években egy csődtömeg volt. De elég volt kis idő a rehabon, hogy minden megváltozzon. Az élet nagyon gyorsan nagyon jó lett. Rachelnek most szerelemben, szeretetben, családban, szenvedélybetegek tanácsadójaként remek állásban van része, sőt még kertjei is vannak. Egyetlen rossz szokása a drága edzőcipők iránti túlzott előszeretete. Az élete azonban kibillen az egyensúlyából, amikor váratlanul feltűnik az a férfi, akit egykor szeretett. Eddig azt hitte, megállapodott. Most már örökre sínen az élete. Kénytelen lesz-e rádöbbenni, hogy mindegy, hány évesek vagyunk, minden megváltozhat? Nem kell-e mindent újra gondolnod, Rachel?

Losing the love of your life once is tragic. TWICE looks like carelessness... Rachel Walsh is a survivor: she survived rehab and the loss of her greatest love. These days everything in her life is good - good job, good dog, very good boyfriend. Then Luke - her ex of six years - shows up. Suddenly she's fragile and falling. They ended badly and neither can speak of the secret hurt which drove them apart. But is it fear of what happened? Or what might happen next?

Casey-ék egy elbűvölő család. Johnny Casey, a két fivére, Ed és Liam, gyönyörű, tehetséges feleségeik és az összes gyermekük sülve-főve együtt vannak. Születésnapi partik, házassági évfordulók, hétvégi kiruccanások...egy nagy, boldog család. Johnny felesége, Jessie, akinek a legtöbb pénze van, legalább is váltig ezt állítja. A felszín alatt azonban már nem ilyen idilli a helyzet: egyesek közt ellentétek feszülnek, mások a kelleténél jobban kedvelik egymást... A családi békét sikerül megőrizni, míg Ed felesége, Cara agyrázkódást nem szenved, és ezért nem tudja magában tartani a gondolatait. Elég egy meggondolatlan megjegyzés Johnny születésnapján, ahol jelen van az egész család, és Cara megszellőzteti az összes családi titkot. Az ezt követő tisztázás során minden felnőtt azon töpreng, nincs-e itt az ideje, hogy - végre - felnőjenek? A Felnőttek egy új, szenzációsan szórakoztató , megható és hangos nevetésre fakasztó regény Marian Keyes tollából. "Minden szavát imádtam. Még heteken át fognak hiányozni ezek a csodálatos, eleven karakterek!" - Liane Moriarty, a Hatalmas kis hazugságok írónője "Zűrzavaros, egymásba gabalyodott, összetett sorsok, melyek eszembe juttatták, hogy csak nagyon kevés ember teszi valaha is rendbe az életét" - Jojo Moyes, a Mielőtt megismertelek írónője

**The Break is the brand new novel from Marian Keyes, out on September 7th 2017 - preorder it now** 'Myself and Hugh . . . We're taking a break.' 'A city-with-fancy-food sort of break?' If only. Amy's husband Hugh says he isn't leaving her. He still loves her, he's just taking a break - from their marriage, their children and, most of all, from their life together. Six months to lose himself in south-east Asia. And there is nothing Amy can say or do about it. Yes, it's a mid-life crisis, but let's be clear: a break isn't a break up - yet . . . However, for Amy it's enough to send her - along with her extended family of gossips, misfits and troublemakers - teetering over the edge. For a lot can happen in six-months. When Hugh returns if he returns, will he be the same man she married? And will Amy be the same woman? Because if Hugh is on a break from their marriage, then isn't she? The Break isn't a story about falling in love but about staying in love. It is Marian Keyes at her funniest, wisest and brilliant best. 'A born storyteller' Independent on Sunday 'When it comes to writing page-turners that put a smile on your face and make you think, Keyes is in a class of her own' Daily Express

Neve: Stella Sweeney. Testmagassága: átlagos. Az élete a közelmúltban: drámai. Stella Sweeney, a dublini édesanya egy nap az autóban ülve elhatározza, hogy megpróbál jót cselekedni. A jó cselekedet karambolhoz vezet, ami egy csapásra megváltoztatja Stella életét. Megismerkedik ugyanis egy férfival, aki elkéri a telefonszámát (mint kiderül, a biztosítás miatt). De nem baj. Stella egyébként sem csípi annyira a fickót (aki totálkárosra törte az autóját a Range Roverével). Ám ebből a talákozásból szárba szökken valami, aminek köszönhetően Stella sokezer mérföldnyire repül a régi életétől, hétköznapi nőből szupersztárrá változik, a családja pedig darabokra hullik. Lehetséges volna, hogy mindez egyetlen, meggondolatlanul véghez vitt jó cselekedetnek köszönhető? Vajon a végzet vagy a karma műve, hogy Stella megismerkedik Mr. Range Roverrel? Hálásnak kellene lennie, vagy tombolnia kéne dühében? Stella Sweeney, a dublini háziasszony életében először karnyújtásnyira áll az igazi, valódi, hús-vér boldogságtól. De vajon készen áll-e arra, hogy utána nyúljon, és megszerezze magának? "Elbűvölő szereplők, mesés történetszövés, borotvaéles párbeszéd. Marian Keyes igazi zseni!" Daily Mail "Briliáns, szokatlan, bátor, szexi könyv!" Jojo Moyes "Éles, szókimondó és rettentő vicces." Sunday Times
