“I already miss the Irish-isms and voices of The Happy Couple and I've only just finished listening to it. I gulped it down in one sitting. She didn't, I hear you saying, but I bet you'll also find it hard to stop listening once you start this funny and incisive choral novel. ”

Meet Celine and Luke. To all intents and purposes, the happy couple.
But Celine's more interested in playing the piano, and Luke's a serial cheater.
And as their big day approaches, the complicated lives of the wedding party begin to unravel. A fed-up bridesmaid, a lovesick best man, guests and family members all find themselves searching for their own happily ever afters.
From the author of Exciting Times, this is a sparkling ensemble novel about love and marriage, fidelity and betrayal.
