Fiction, Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945)
An hilarious and touching novel with an unforgettable heroine whom every reader will identify with - as warm and addictive as Marian Keyes.
Meet Scarlett O'Hara - wedding planner extraordinaire who's famous for making dreams come true. From scuba-diving ceremonies to flamingos at the reception, her colour-coded checklists make everything look simple.
Scarlett s personal life ran just as smoothly. Until now.
Her dependable boyfriend has moved to Brazil.
She's had to give up her Dublin flat and move back home.
And she's pregnant.
Worse still, she doesn't know who the father of the baby is... even though she s slept with exactly 4-and-a-half men in her entire 35 years.
How will Scarlett cope now all her best laid plans have gone with the wind?
Praise for Becoming Scarlett
