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
inform 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 an (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.
