At twenty-nine, fun-loving, good-natured Claire has everything she ever wanted: a husband she adores, a great apartment, a good job. Then, on the day she gives birth to her first baby, James visits her in the recovery room to tell her that he’s leaving her. Claire is left with a beautiful newborn daughter, a broken heart, and a body that she can hardly bear to look at in the mirror. So, in the absence of any better offers, Claire decides to go home to her family in Dublin. To her gorgeous man-eating sister Helen, her soap-watching mother, her bewildered father. And there, sheltered by the love of her (albeit quirky) family, she gets better. A lot better. In fact, so much better that when James slithers back into her life, he’s in for a bit of a surprise. 912230 1996 Watermelon total:4254|5:29|4:73|3:57|2:17|1:5| 4254 15568 5581 363 5 2 false false Thu Aug 14 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 16 20:03:26 -0700 2008 Sat Aug 16 20:04:49 -0700 2008 Claire can’t believe that the very day that she gives birth to her first child is the same day that her husband decides to leave her.
