Since November 2009Book News: Becoming Scarlett by Ciara Geraghty
Posted on Thursday, 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.”
