Summary:

Karen MacKenzie is too big for her life in a small run-down Scottish island resort but she fails to realize the problem is more than a matter of losing a few pounds or, indeed, saving a few. Her tiny ambitions are knocked off-course when her boyfriend ditches her and she finds herself in the arms of Charlie McGuigan, a man twenty-six years her senior who hasnt had a date in a decade and who initiates her in the ways of hard drinking, heavy smoking, and surreal hangovers. But he also instills in her a sense of her own self-worth and a thirst for something better. Unfortunately for Charlie, this means sacrificing the most important thing in his life.
