Absence makes the heart grow fonder…doesn’t it?
What happens when two people decide to give themselves the year off…from each other?
Annie and Dan were the perfect couple. But now the not-so-newly weds feel more like flatmates than soul mates and wonder where all the fun and fireworks went …
When Annie lands her big break in a smash-hit show that’s heading for the bright lights of Broadway, she’s over the moon. Goodbye remote Irish village of Stickens, hello fabulous Big Apple! But with their relationship already on the rocks, how will Annie and Dan survive the distance?
They’re hitting the pause button on their marriage. One year off from each other – no strings attached, except a date to meet in twelve months at the Rockefeller Centre to decide their fate.
Will they both turn up? Or is it too late for love?
Lose yourself in a fabulously entertaining and poignant love story – perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella and Marian Keyes.
Will you still love me tomorrow is the first book I’ve won from Good reads and I had no idea what to expect from it, but I shall read more books from this genre after the pleasant surprise I got from this one.
The story starts in a unique setting in the moors in Ireland, where Annie, a talented theatre actress moved out of Dublin to be with her perfect husband Dan, all her friends are jealous of her living the perfect life but really she’s miserable. Dan in a way is so perfect that he’s not. He owns a veterinary and is the town hero, always happy to help, and a lot of the times, too happy to help. Leaving Annie with nothing to do and no one to talk to.
I really felt for Annie, who was away from her friends and family to be with her husbands family and puts up with so much and I completely understood her dilemma, how can she be so selfish to demand Dan’s time when he’s out there working so hard for others. But at the same time how much longer can she suffer in silence?
When Annie get’s an offer to act in a play in New York we see the old phoenix ignited in her again. Both Dan and Annie go through all kinds of trails and errors as they face the world without each other.
It’s not like my usual urban fantasies with twists and deaths at every chapter, this was a much smother and real pace; though I predicted the end, I still went along for the ride and was curious to know how the characters will get there.
Claudia Carroll has such a vivid style and description of her characters, I could imagine them living down my street.
It’s a great choice for your summer read.
