Synopsis
The fast lane is much too slow for Rachel Walsh. And Manhattan is the perfect place for a young Irish female to overdo everything. But Rachel's love of a good time is about to land her in the emergency room. It will also cost her a job and the boyfriend she adores.
When her loving family hustles her back home and checks her into Ireland's answer to the Betty Ford Clinic, Rachel is hopeful. Perhaps it will be lovely -- spa treatments, celebrities, that kind of thing. Instead, she finds a lot of group therapy, which leads her, against her will, to some important self-knowledge. She will also find something that all women like herself fear: a man who might actually be good for her.

Reviews
I read this book and loved it. This is one of several books she writes about a fictional Irish family with 5 grown daughters. Each sister has a book, Rachel's Holiday, Angles, Watermellon, Anyone Out There. . .etc. . . What's cool is that the charachters carry their own personalities over from book to book even though they are not a series. Very entertaining, I laughed and cried. Suggest reading all of them. You feel like you are a part of that family.
