The story picks up where Tough Love left off. This time it's all about Charley. She has it all now that she is officially a WAG. All the most glamorous parties, her husbands credit card and a million-pound penthouse. But behinds closed doors her life isn't as glossy as it seems. Joel Brady, her husband has a temper and beats Charley when they argue. She has to go, but there's one problem - she still loves him. Will she regret marrying in haste - and against her and her family's will?

Heat magazine said of Katona:"If Jackie Collins had grown up on the Shameless estate, this is pretty much what we think she'd come up with... compulsive".[2]
