It’s Got To Be Perfect:All Annie Delaney really wants is her happy ever after. A big dress. A big day. A big commitment. She even has a scrap book filled to bursting with ideas for her dream day, her dream home and of course her dream man. Only problem is, the current man on her arm isn’t so much of a dream as a nightmare and as for the man currently in her bed… that’s a whole other disaster in the making. With her relationship, and her life, heading into a tailspin Annie realises she has to re-examine just what can make her happy, while trying (and failing) not to make things worse. But it’s never going to be easy especially when she sees her friend Fionn heading straight towards her own big day with her Mr Right. But then Annie misjudges the difficulties Fionn faces with Mr Right’s very own Little Miss, not to mention the ex waiting in the wings. Turning to her sister, Darcy, for support Annie has her eyes opened to just what can make you happy or indeed what can make you sad. And she ponders that age old question is there ever such a thing as the perfect relationship?

Now she still looks like she s nine months pregnant two years after childbirth and is devastated when the office bimbo, stick-insect Louise, announces: I need you to lose weight.

Ruth Byrne was left high and dry when her husband ran off with a younger woman. But could his desertion have been a blessing in disguise for Ruth and her children?
