Cecelia loses her chicklit crown to Sinéad

This book is as good as it gets in terms of chicklit polish and poise, humour and pain, pace and plot ... Sinéad Moriarty can still bring readers from hilarity to heartbreak with great deftness

Moriarty knows how to weave an engaging story ... [she] gives her fans all the escapism they crave

We loved Sinéad's latest read: touching, warm, funny and emotional. She has the gift of telling a very emotive story with grace and empathy

Emma and James Hamilton have weathered lots of storms in their ten-year marriage. However, the pressure of moving for James's new job puts them under stress like never before. So when James starts getting texts from a stranger - texts that show startling insights into their lives - Emma is not sure what to think. Maybe the life she believed to be solid and secure is just a mirage. 
 
Somehow she has to get a grip, but how can she do that when a stranger is set on driving Emma out of her home and her marriage?

'A perfect mix of intrigue, emotion and humour, this is a really gripping and enjoyable read****' Closer 
 
'The inevitable comparisons with Marian Keyes are justified and well deserved - Moriarty's characters are likeable, well developed and funny****' Heat 
 
Sinéad Moriarty's riveting novel, Mad About You, makes you stop and think about the importance of trust in relationships - how fragile it can be, how easily damaged, how hard to repair. Sinéad combines the storytelling genius of Jodi Picoult, and the compassion and humour of Marian Keyes, in a gripping story of contemporary marriage. 
 
Emma and James Hamilton have weathered lots of storms in their ten-year marriage. From the heartbreak of infertility, to the craziness of then becoming parents to two babies in one year, to coping with James losing his job, somehow they have always worked as a team. 
 
However, the pressure of moving for James's new job puts them under stress like never before. So when James starts getting texts from a stranger - texts that show startling insights into their lives - Emma is not sure what to think. She is far from home, isolated and before long finds herself questioning everything about their relationship. 
 
Somehow she has to get a grip, but how can she do that when a stranger seems set on driving Emma out of her home and her marriage? 
 
'One of the brightest voices in modern women's fiction' Bella
