When Cara Sullivan's world falls apart she does what any distraught Irish woman would do - she takes off for an island getaway with her best friend. What better way to re-think her life than from a distance, while sipping umbrella drinks beside the sea? But Cyprus offers far more than sunshine and gin, and when Cara finds comfort in the company of a handsome local, things start to get complicated. Set among the beaches and ruins of the Mediterranean, Runaway Cara is a story about love, lust, betrayal and friendship, and a woman who discovers that running away from your problems is not the same as leaving them behind.
