Did the earth shake?

A hilarious romance about a mother who discovers that perfection is an unattainable goal. Famous for her chick-lit novels, Carmen Reid presents her second book of the genre in Brazil: "Did the Earth Tremble?". Anyone who enjoyed "A Bed for Three" can't miss this funny story about a modern woman who has to juggle motherhood, work, and life's problems. Eva Gardiner is a cool, North London mother of four: Denny (22), Tom (20), Anna (9), and Robbie (2). She loves spending hours tending to her garden and doing yoga to de-stress from her job as a probation officer. Just when everything seemed to be in turmoil in Eva's life, Tom announces his girlfriend's pregnancy and their intention to get married. Furthermore, Tom decides to track down his father—who abandoned Eva after his business went bankrupt—to invite him to the ceremony. To make matters worse, the young and attractive Joseph, Anna and Robbie's father, reappears, leaving Eva confused about her feelings: did she let the love of her life slip away so easily?
