'Emily is a sparkling and witty character...Add to this some great subplots and hilarious supporting characters and you have a great beach read...one that will leave you with a positive and uplifting feeling at the end' Irish Tatler [Irish Tatler]
'Very warm, very funny...witty and refreshingly honest' Irish World [Irish World]'For Sheila O'Flanagan and Cathy Kelly fans, a warm, IriEmily is expecting. She is 34 weeks pregnant, her ankles are swollen, her hair is falling out and she's worried about the baby. Now she's been passed over for partnership in the firm of solicitors where she puts in more than 48 hours a week. And if that weren't enough it looks as if her husband, the piano-playing Conor, may have been running his fingers over more than the ivories while on tour in Germany.
Depressed, demoted and about to deliver, Emily's not going to take this lying down...
Praise for Expecting Emily
