Description

Back in the day, Claire had dreams. She was going to be somebody! Now a forty-something mom of three (four if you count her husband!), drowning in laundry and PTA chores, with a job she can't stand, she's finally had enough . . . A hilarious, heartwarming mom-com, perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella and Fiona Gibson.

Claire Casey has reached her breaking point. For years, she's juggled it all: kids, husband, career, and a never-ending list of responsibilities. But when the man who's supposed to be her partner - who promised he wouldn't let his phone die and would pick her up from the airport - completely forgets about her, Claire snaps.

It's the final straw. Claire is done. And so are they.

Sort of . . . maybe. (It's not easy saying goodbye to sixteen years of marriage, ok!)

Still, Claire's determined to reclaim her life. She's tired of being the overworked, worn-out mom in her forties. She wants to be hopeful, vivacious Claire again.

Attending her college reunion reconnects her with former flame, Alex. And while flirting with him over email is innocent, his invitation to meet for drinks at a swanky hotel is not!

As Claire begins to rediscover the woman she was, she's forced to confront the harsh reality that recapturing her sense of self could blow up her marriage . . . Now Claire must decide: risk the unknown or rebuild the life she has, flaws and all?

Told over the course of a day in the life of this relatable heroine, Claire Casey's Had Enough is a laugh-out-loud mom-com that readers will adore!
