This Charming Man
by Marian Keyes
Suave Irish politician Paddy de Courcey is getting married. Which is news to Lola, who thought she was his girlfriend. And to Grace, a dogged reporter dead-set on uncovering the truth about Paddy, who ruined her sister’s life. This 2008 novel is one of Keyes’ most hard-hitting, dealing with alcoholism and domestic violence—but brings a gently sardonic wit to what might otherwise be devastating subject matter. Colleen Hoover’s It Ends With Us meets Helen Fielding’s Bridget Jones’s Diary.
