The betrayal of Grace Mulcahy

It's not often one discovers a new writer in the league with Patricia Scanlan and Cathy Kelly. It's also dangerous to make the comparison. However, when I found Colette Caddle in "Irish Girls about Town", I knew immediately she was something special. By then she had published two novels, which I immediately got.Colette Caddle is a fairly new bestselling author of not quite chick-lit, but a bit more mature womens' literature, to put it that way. She writes warm, human novels in a contemperary setting about ordinary people like you and me. About love, marriage and kids. Work and struggle. Joy and sorrow - in short, about LIFE.Her writing style is light and easy and although the outcome of her stories is rather predictable, her books are never boring. On the contrary, they are wonderful and highly entertaining page-turners."The Betrayal of Grace Mulcahy" is the story of Grace Mulcahy's shaky marriage and the betrayal by her interior design business partner, Miriam. Although the main characters in the book are very much the good versus the bad guys, this does not make them any less believable. After all, crooks and liars aren't exactly strangers in real life either!!I have read and enjoyed all Colette Caddle's books. The fact that one does not want a book to end, is the best praise one can give. I recommend her books warmly and hope hope more readers will discover and enjoy this new Irish "star"!

I loved the way the characters were written. The book was very descriptive and had a lovely timeless quality to it. Fantastic. 🏡🌻

well written nice gentle read

Too predictable. Reluctantly finished it, but tempted to give up early in. Uneven structure, unbelievable mostly.

VERY PLEASED
