Aisling is twenty-eight and she's a complete ... Aisling. She lives at home in Ballygobbard (or Ballygobackwards, as some gas tickets call it) with her parents and commutes to her good job at PensionsPlus in Dublin. Aisling goes out every Saturday night with her best friend Majella, who is a bit of a hames (she's lost two phones already this year – Aisling has never lost a phone). They love hoofing into the Coors Light if they're 'Out', or the vodka and Diet Cokes if they re 'Out Out'. Ais spends two nights a week at her boyfriend John's. He's from down home and was kiss number seventeen at her twenty-first. But Aisling wants more. She wants the ring on her finger. She wants the hen with the willy straws. She wants out of her parents' house, although she'd miss Mammy turning on the electric blanket like clockwork and Daddy taking her car 'out for a spin' and bringing it back full of petrol. When a week in Tenerife with John doesn't end with the expected engagement, Aisling calls a halt to things and soon she has surprised herself and everyone else by agreeing to move into a three-bed in Portobello with stylish Sadhbh from HR and her friend, the mysterious Elaine. Newly single and relocated to the big city, life is about to change utterly for this wonderful, strong, surprising and funny girl, who just happens to be a complete Aisling.
What's a girl to do when she has not one but two weddings on the same weekend? Not that either of them are Aisling's - she's only just got together with the dishy James Matthews and there's plenty of time before she has to even think about her own wedding bells. But Aisling's fledgling brunch business is set to cater for one of the weddings, and she's promised to be Maid of Honour at the other, her best friend's big day. And she's not just being pulled between work and friendship - she's also contending with the revelation that James is practically aristocracy, and her old flame John arriving back on the scene . . .

Einmal Aisling, immer Aisling! So schnell kann's gehen: Gerade noch hatte Aisling eine coole Wohnung, einen sicheren Job und eine feste Beziehung, da schlägt das Schicksal gleich mehrfach zu: Nicht nur, dass sie sich wegen der LGBTQ-Hochzeit ihrer Mitbewohnerin Elaine eine neue Wohnung suchen muss – die arme Aisling wird auch noch gefeuert. Und ihre gerade wieder aufgeflammte Beziehung zu John fühlt sich irgendwie ... nun ja, eben langweilig an. Es ist Zeit, das Leben in neue Bahnen zu lenken! Kurzerhand zieht Aisling zurück nach Ballygobbard, um ein Brunchcafé zu eröffnen. Doch ihr Versuch, das urbane Leben aufs Land zu bringen und nebenbei noch ihr Glück zu finden, birgt mehr Stolpersteine, als sie je geahnt hätte.
