An Irish author known for her humor and her magic with words, Marian Keyes is the author of more than 15 books under the genre "chick-lit". Although her books are light and funny, they also deal with a number of serious topics that are hidden deep within our society - depression, drug abuse, domestic abuse, extra marital affairs, to name a few!
The new "Colleen" magazine is about to be launched in Dublin, and the whole office is in uproar - including the editor Lisa who has been "banished" from New York and flown down to Ireland, the sub-editor Ashling who is new to the field and trying hard to fit in, and the office hunk Jack Devin. As Lisa struggles to make a success of her new job so that she is can return triumphantly to New York amidst her peers, Ashling is thanking her lucky stars to land with both a good job and a mildly-famous boyfriend. Meanwhile, Clodagh - Ashling's childhood friend - looks for some sinful diversion outside the home despite having the love of a good husband, two wonderful children and a lovely home!
