Between Us

A Novel

By: Mhairi McFarlane

Narrated by: Mira Dovreni

""The whole time I'm reading a Mhairi McFarlane novel, I feel like a fist is squeezing my heart… she is so ridiculously talented."" – Emily Henry

International bestseller Mhairi McFarlane delivers a witty, clever, emotional new novel about a woman whose life unravels spectacularly after her screenwriter boyfriend uses their relationship as inspiration for his new television show.

When Roisin and Joe join their friends for a weekend at a country house, it’s a triple celebration—a birthday, an engagement, and the launch of Joe’s shiny new TV show. But as the weekend unfolds, tensions come to light in the group and Roisin begins to question her own relationship. And as they watch the first episode of Joe’s drama, she realizes that the private things she told him—which should have stayed between them—are right there on the screen.

With her friend group in chaos and her messy love life on display for the whole world to see, Roisin returns home to avoid the unwanted attention and help run her family’s pub. But drama still follows, in the form of her dysfunctional family and the looming question: what other parts of her now-ex’s show are inspired by real events? Lies? Infidelity? Every week, as a new episode airs, she wonders what other secrets will be revealed.

Yet the most unexpected twist of all is an old friend, who is suddenly there for Roisin in ways she never knew she needed…

This is her best one yet

Don’t skip this one. It was well narrated, story was relatable, inspiring and took me back to my past toxic relationships.

Great narration, witty & wonderful romance!

As always with this author, I really enjoyed this! She has a talent for creating relatable heroines and love interests that truly you root for.

Another wonderful book from McFarlane

Between Us is smart, poignant, funny, & I couldn’t wait to get back to listening. McFarlane writes about complicated relationships in a beautiful way and gives us complex characters to love and cheer for.

Absolutely wonderful

Mhairi McFarlane is such an amazing writer. Her stories keep you on the edge of your seat and the endings are always perfect (even when they aren’t). I love that she sprinkles in very real world problems that a lot of us have dealt with or been near enough to. This story does all this and more. Wonderful story - I would definitely recommend for the cozy romantic 🖤

Not my cup of tea

Just not my cup of tea! It took several starts to get into it, and I never REALLY bought in. Can’t put my finger on what it was, but it was like pulling teeth for me to finish….
