Klasický román anglické autorky o hledání pravého životního partnera je půvabným, pomalu plynoucím líčením života členů střední třídy v Anglii, jejich zájmů, zábav a citů. Román pro všechny, kdo si oblíbili hrdinky Jane Austenové obdařené inteligencí, vtipem a morální pevností. Tento půvabný skvost psala autorka na sklonku své literární dráhy a vložila do něj všechen svůj tvůrčí um i ohlédnutí za vlastním životem s otázkou, zda ji něco v životě neminulo. Spisovatelka se těší z každého slova, pečlivě je váží, místy jen naznačuje, aby nenarušila jemné předivo vyprávění o vztazích mezi rodiči a dětmi, mezi sestrami i mezi mužem a ženou.

The newly retired linebacker and single dad is even more gorgeous now than the night we spent together, and since he knows I'm pregnant with his baby, he's adamant to do right by us.
