Osmadvacetiletá Aisling žije se svými rodiči v malé irské vesnici, odkud každé ráno dojíždí za svou nudnou kancelářskou prací do Dublinu. Její život je jeden velký stereotyp – od sobotního piva s nejlepší kamarádkou po přesně dvě noci týdně strávené u přítele Johna. Aisling dokonce nikdy neztratila telefon! Jenomže roky letí a Aisling chce víc. Touží po prstenu s diamantem a chce konečně opustit rodné hnízdo. Jenomže v životě potrhlé a sarkastické Aisling nejde nikdy nic podle plánu…
Aisling, at 31, embraces her identity as she embarks on a new chapter in New York after closing the door on her relationship with John. Accepting an unexpected job offer, she navigates the challenges of the Big Apple, immersing herself in the dating scene, adapting to a relentless work culture, and striving to build new friendships. Despite her efforts, she misses the comfort of home, reminiscing about casual chats over drinks with friends in Ballygobard. As Aisling attends a party in the Hamptons, her fashion choices spark disapproval from Sadhbh, yet she remains undeterred. The allure of New York is strong, especially when it comes to its charming firemen. However, a crisis back home makes her question her place in the city. Can Aisling maintain her New York state of mind, or will she be drawn back to her roots? Critics praise the narrative for its warmth and relatability, highlighting Aisling as a beloved character who resonates with modern Irish women. The book is described as a delightful, emotional journey, capturing the essence of friendship, resilience, and the complexities of life in a bustling city, all while providing a comforting escape in challenging times.
What's a girl to do when she has not one but two weddings on the same weekend? Not that either of them are Aisling's - she's only just got together with the dishy James Matthews and there's plenty of time before she has to even think about her own wedding bells. But Aisling's fledgling brunch business is set to cater for one of the weddings, and she's promised to be Maid of Honour at the other, her best friend's big day. And she's not just being pulled between work and friendship - she's also contending with the revelation that James is practically aristocracy, and her old flame John arriving back on the scene . . .
