Synopsis

The fast lane is much too slow for Rachel Walsh. And Manhattan is the perfect place for a young Irish female to overdo everything. But Rachel's love of a good time is about to land her in the emergency room. It will also cost her a job and the boyfriend she adores.

When her loving family hustles her back home and checks her into Ireland's answer to the Betty Ford Clinic, Rachel is hopeful. Perhaps it will be lovely--spa treatments, celebrities, that kind of thing. Instead, she finds a lot of group therapy, which leads her, against her will, to some important self-knowledge. She will also find something that all women like herself fear: a man who might actually be good for her.

About this title

Review:

A gripping tale of self-discovery (Giovanna Fletcher)

Keyes manages to have you alternately blubbing and belly-laughing to the final page (Company)

Gloriously funny (The Sunday Times)

A born storyteller (Independent on Sunday)

The voice of a generation (Daily Mirror)

From the Back Cover:

Imagine you're Rachel.

Living in glamorous New York City, spending your nights at fabulous parties and heading home in the small hours to your sexy boyfriend Luke.

Then your sensible older sister shows up.

Next thing you know, you're being escorted back to your parents, who insist on checking you in to Cloisters, a kind of low rent Priory.

Suddenly you're in therapy sessions and being cured of all your addictions: the drugs, the high life and even Luke.

But you're young - can't you make a few mistakes?

Because you can't help worrying:
if they take all this away, what'll be left?
