Is it always this complicated? - E-book - ePub

What would you do for £3, 000, 000?Despite being dead, Tara's Celtic tiger mother finally has real leverage over her wilfully disobedient daughter. Her Last Will and Testament provides that unless one of her four daughters has a baby within the next two years, their cousin will inherit everything. Tara, 31-year-old dreamer, amateur photographer and waitress, has never failed to disappoint her mother.
Now she's furious: she knows the condition in the Will is meant for her - her other sisters are far too busy living their wildly successful lives to have time for procreation. She's never seriously considered the question of motherhood, and her boyfriend Aidan isn't very keen on the idea. But there's a lot of money at stake... Over the next twelve months, Tara struggles with sibling coercion, an increasingly distant boyfriend - and the confusing relationship she has with Luis, the wealthy art dealer who's more than happy to help her fulfil the condition in the Will.
Her life becomes increasingly complicated as she's forced to confront the big question every woman must make at some point in her life: do I want to be a mother?An hilarious, poignant novel about mothers, sisters and lovers - and self-love.
