Sin nada que valga la pena. Sin embargo, deprimirse no sirve de nada, y su nuevo jefe no está nada mal... Ashling Kennedy, la superorganizada asistente de Lisa, es modesta, trabajadora, buena chica y adicta comprar bolsos y preocuparse por todo y por todos. Aunque cada vez es más y más consciente de que a su vida le falta algo..., además de un novio y una cintura de avispa. Y en cuanto a Clodagh Kelly, la mejor amiga de Ashling... ah, ella vive una vida de ensueño en su casita a las afueras con dos niños preciosos y un príncipe azul por marido. Debería ser feliz, ¿no?

Every book tells a story . . . And the 70 titles in the Pocket Penguins series are emblematic of the renowned breadth and quality that formed part of the original Penguin vision in 1935 and that continue to define our publishing today. Together, they tell one version of the unique story of Penguin Books. Marian Keyes spearheaded a new wave of contemporary women''s fiction, providing wickedly funny tales of twenty- and thirty-somethings living and loving on the edge. No stranger to the road less commonly travelled herself, Marian has also written two collections of tales and observations from her own life.
