When Carey Browne decides it's time for a holiday and flies into New York City - one of her favourite shopping destinations - she knows she'll have a good time. What she doesn't know is that she's about to have the biggest adventure of her life. Within days she's met and married Ben Russell, and a week later they're heading back together to Dublin, where they both live, to share the happy news with family and friends. Except not everyone's thrilled. And not everyone's convinced this is really more than a holiday romance. Carey and Ben are about to discover whether they've found the kind of love that can survive a blast of reality...

Definitely a must read for those who LOVE happy-endings...
There are times when people just do things without thinking... (ok, maybe meeting a cute, gorgeous hunk and marrying him almost immediately is not one of them) As if you don't need to convince yourself that you have made the right decision, you have to convince the people around you too!
Sheila O'Flanagan captured it so well - pride, doubting the other person's love as well as the feeling of 'am I good enough for him'. I can really relate to Carey. I laughed, cried, hoped and had that fuzzy feeling as I read the book....
Predictable? Yeah, maybe but I LOVE IT! Just can't put the book down once I start reading.

When I read the back of this book, I was really excited because I thought it was going to be really good. But when I did read it, I was disappointed. Although some parts are quite interesting, it was quite annoying the whole love story between Ben and Carey. Sorry, but I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.

Not as good as her others
I have several of Sheila O'Flanagans books in hardback. They have been gripping reading and I have enjoyed them - not so this book. Read more

A Good Old Girly Book
The first review i read about this book was that it was predictable, that may be the case in the end but do we really want to read a book where the main characters are unhappy? Read more

Really good
I thought this was really good - and I'm puzzled by the one star reviews below. I think it was a typical Sheila O'Flanagan, interesting characters, a pacey plot but what I loved... Read more

Oh Dear.
What happened to Sheila O'Flanagan? This book is really silly. Girl (Carey Browne)goes to New York,meets guy(Ben)on the plane,then marries him within 36 hours, daft. Read more
