Books like Always and Forever by Cathy Kelly


In the picturesque Irish town of Carrickwell, three middle‑aged women—Ambitious Mel, caring Daisy, and hot‑headed Cleo—believe they have their lives mapped out. Mel’s high‑flying career is upended as she balances the demands of being a working mum of two. For Daisy, the prospect of becoming a mother turns into a source of great anxiety. Cleo, eager to join the family business after completing her hotel‑management degree, must watch the company teeter and her relationships with her parents and siblings fray. Through these upheavals, the women confront the fragility of their ambitions and the depth of their friendship.
