Rate this book
'Everybody remembers where they were the day they heard that Paddy de Courcy was getting married'.

But for four women in particular, the big news about the charismatic politician is especially momentous...
Stylist Lola has every reason to be interested in who Paddy's marrying - because she's his girlfriend, yet she definitely isn't the bride-to-be ... Journalist Grace wants the inside story on the de Courcy engagement and thinks Lola holds the key ... while Grace's sister, Marnie, still can't forget her first love: a certain Paddy de Courcy. And what of the soon-to-be Mrs de Courcy? Alicia will do anything for her fiancé and is determined to be the perfect wife. But does she know the real Paddy?

Four very different women.

One awfully charming man.

And the dark secret that binds them all...

Okuması çok keyifli, 775 sayfa olduğunu hissettirmeyen, güldüren, kendinizi karakterlerin yerine koymanızı sağlayacak kitap. Yapabileceğim iki eleştir var ama bu iki eleştiri kitap hakkındaki bütün düşüncelerimin değişmesine sebep oldu. İlk olarak son yüz sayfada neler olacağını çok rahat tahmin ettim. Bu da kitaplarda çok rahatsız olduğum bir şeydir. İkincisi ise sonunun çok toz pembe olmasıydı. Tıpkı çocuk filmlerinde olduğu gibi hiç olmayacak şeyler gerçekleşti ve tabii ki iyi olan tarafın yararına oldu. Bu da bana çok battı. Normalde okuduğum kitapların arasına rahatlatıcı tarzda okuduğum kitaplardan. Kafa dağıtmanıza yardımcı, sizi alıp götüren, eğlendiren bir kitap. Okunmasında bir sakınca yok ama son yüz sayfada hayalkırıklığı muhtemel
