Book News: Becoming Scarlett by Ciara Geraghty
September 10th, 2009 by ChloeI’m halfway throught the brilliant debut novel by new Irish author Ciara Geraghty and already loving it, so when I saw she’s already got another book on the way I was pleased. Ciara’s second book, Becoming Scarlett, is due out on 7th January 2010 so we’ve got a bit of a wait but here’s the synopsis:
“Meet Scarlett O’Hara. She’s a woman with a plan. Until now…
Because Scarlett has moved back to her childhood home with her plan in tatters. And a baby on the way.
John Smith, actuary, proper grown-up and Scarlett’s boyfriend, has left her to join an archaeological dig in a tiny village somewhere in Brazil.
But that’s not the worst bit.
The worst bit is she can’t be sure who the father of the baby is . . . even though she’s slept with exactly four-and-a-half men in her entire 35 years.
As a distraction, Scarlett throws herself into her job as a wedding planner, but even that’s not going smoothly. Because of her growing feelings for her most important client’s husband-to-be . . .
In the end it’s the person she thought she knew best – herself – who surprises her the most. Join Scarlett as she tries, for the first time ever, to navigate life without a plan.”
