THIS IS NOW - Softcover

A touching, tender, often funny story about love in all its messy, uncertain glory . . . with a hero who will find a place in your heart. * Julie Cohen on NOW THAT I'VE FOUND YOU * My favourite author does it again in this superbly written perceptive, poignant novel that makes you laugh and cry! Oh, I envy you the read of this. Treat yourself to a brilliant book! * Patricia Scanlan on NOW THAT I'VE FOUND YOU * Ciara Geraghty is a superb writer . . . She's the Irish Jojo Moyes, of Me Before You fame. Like Moyes, her books are meticulously researched, beautifully written, and infused with warmth, humour and human understanding. * Irish Examiner * A smart, realistic and gritty love story . . . You will feel all the feelings - we can't remember the last time we rooted for two characters quite as much. Geraghty also deals very sensitively with mental health problems, and goes out of her way not to paint the other halves in the broken relationships as "baddies" . . . A romantic story with its feet firmly planted in the grittiness of real life. * Heat on NOW THAT I'VE FOUND YOU * I'm so pleased to have found Ciara! What a wonderful book - I loved it. I thought it had such heart and depth, and the characters were so real. I genuinely didn't want it to end. * Lucy Diamond on NOW THAT I'VE FOUND YOU *

An ordinary day. An ordinary bank. An ordinary street in an ordinary town. Nothing ever happens, until, one day, a shocking robbery turns life upside down for five people: Cillian, a police detective, Martha, the woman he thought was the life of his life, Tobias, who came to Ireland after WWII and now lies in a coma, shot in the bank robbery, Roman, the young Polish teenager who is suspected of pulling the trigger and his mother Rosa, the cleaner, who dreamed of a better life for herself and her son . . . . . . and things will never be ordinary again. Ciara Geraghty's writing has that rare ability to make you laugh out loud as well as cry. She combines tangled human relationships with humour, romance and warmth to create something truly special.
