Product Description

Product Description

Lola has just found out that her boyfriend - charismatic politician Paddy de Courcy - is getting married. To someone else. Heartbroken, Lola flees the city for a cottage by the sea. But will Lola's retreat prove as idyllic as she hopes? Journalist Grace wants the inside story on Paddy de Courcy's engagement and thinks Lola holds the key to it. Grace knew Paddy a long time ago. But why can't she forget him? Grace's sister, Marnie, might have the answer but she also has issues with the past. Her loving loving husband and beautiful daughters are wonderful, but they can't take away memories of her first love: a certain Paddy de Courcy. What will it take for Marnie to be able to move on? Alicia Thornton is Paddy's wife-to-be. Determined to be the perfect wife, Alicia would do anything for her fiance. But does she know the real Paddy? Four very different women. One awfully charming man. And the dark secret that binds them all.

4.0 out of 5 stars Darker but Addictive, April 1 2009
By Mrs. Emma L. Elsey "Emma-Louise Elsey" (Salt Spring Island, BC) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: This Charming Man (Paperback)
Couldn't put this down. But having said that, it was darker than Marian's usual lighthearted and funny novels - and I wasn't expecting that - so it wasn't the uplifting and amusing read I was used to.

Whilst I found all of the characters entertaining and actually liked Lola's style of conversation, I found the domestic abuse and alcoholism/depression a little depressing. It was also sad to see so many women without the self-esteem to deal with people and life. Although this may just be closer to reality than I would like...

However, the book was written very empathically with all the entertaining twists and turns of a usual Marian Keyes.

Recommend, but be prepared with a hanky.

Also, read my first Sophie Kinsella (Remember me) in the same period Remember Me?. It's a much lighter style, easier to read (intellectually and emotionally) and a better choice for a 'fun' read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dont Read if you have been the victim of domestic abuse and still have issues!, Nov 17 2009
By Marie Crosson "A Brit in NA" (Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: This Charming Man (Paperback)
OK well, firstly I would like to confirm that I am indeed an avid reader of Marian Keyes, she makes me laugh and I love the Irish background in the books. I recommended all of her other books to my friends knowing they would love them. However I am only up to page 360 of This Charming Man and have had to stop. I tried to continiue last night but the end of that particular chapter was far to raw for me and I had to throw the book off the bed with orders to my lovely "new" hubby to throw it in the bin. He didnt of course although knowing my background he does wonder why I would try to read this! and I probably will pick it up again but it is a really hard read for someone who has been through it. So far I dont even know who the bad man is but there definately is one! his essence is in the writing, its scary and makes your stomach cramp just knowing he is in there! Its scraping at wounds that are not yet healed for me so I will just say, good research Marian, fair play to you for highlighting this issue, you are a wonderfully clever funny author but its not for me at this time.xxx
