They were already drifting apart as Nora was constantly haunted by another near-death experience happened a few months ago.

While on emergency care, she heard her boyfriend Bobby flirting with Jabrielle, a girl who had a crush on him and that was the end of their relationship. That is until she is hit by a van and almost died. Her life may not be the most glamorous one - since she is not part of the ER department where lies all the excitement - but she has an almost content life with a handsome boyfriend. Nora Stuart is a gastroenterologist in Boston City Hospital, New England's biggest and busiest hospital.

Who knew that I had this catharsis thing going on!!!ĭr. I have been so immersed in the emotional turmoil towards the end that my cheeks were practically drenched. Nothing to be surprised though, if Paulo Coelho is to be believed because "when you want something, all the universe conspires in helping you to achieve it".Īll in all an inspiring read that gave me the boost I so needed these days. There were a bit too many coincidences in the story that was hard to accept, like all the unsolved problems of the past come knocking together. I loved her more because she took a step forward to forgive and to mend the ties with her mother. An insatiable and unfeeling mother, a broken heart and a good for nothing husband from whom she eventually ran away - I was completely in awe of her gumption. But too soon, my feelings took a reverse gear once we are introduced into the not that pretty life of Bel. In fact, I had the very same opinion of the newspaper reviewer who slandered her and the club. My first impression of her was nothing great. The story revolves around Bel Hailstone, the owner of Martini Club who has reworked herself into a glittering personality. Well, that is two more books I need to add to my TBR pile :)

Sure, some of the characters from the previous books appear towards the end and by the looks of it, they seemed to have some interesting stories. I was not familiar with the first two but that was not a pleasure spoiler. 'Martinis & Memories' is the third book in the Martini Club series which can be read as a standalone.
