The Perfect Present is glamorous and festive read from Karen Swan, author of Christmas at Tiffany's.
Haunted by a past she can't escape, Laura Cunningham desires nothing more than to keep her world small and precise - her quiet relationship and growing jewellery business are all she needs to get by. Until the day when Rob Blake walks into her studio and commissions a necklace that will tell his enigmatic wife Cat's life in charms.
As Laura interviews Cat's family, friends and former lovers, she steps out of her world and into theirs - a charmed world where weekends are spent in Verbier and the air is lavender-scented, where friends are wild, extravagant and jealous, and a big love has to compete with grand passions.
Hearts are opened, secrets revealed and as the necklace begins to fill up with trinkets, Cat's intoxicating life envelops Laura's own. By the time she has to identify the final charm, Laura's metamorphosis is almost complete. But the last story left to tell has the power to change all of their lives forever, and Laura is forced to choose between who she really is and who it is she wants to be.

Durchhalten!
Ich habe schon einige Hörbücher von Karen Swan gehört. Bei diesem dachte ich es sei vielleicht doch zu oberflächlich. Richtig gut wurde es jedoch nach 8(!) Stunden. Die Geschichte wird zum Ende rund, emotional und wirklich gut. Bin froh, dass ich es bis zum Ende gehört habe. :-)

Sehr schöne Geschichte
Die Geschichte bringt viele interessante und am Anfang schwer durchschaubare Charaktere mit sich. Die Liebesgeschichte spielt zuerst eine untergeordnete Rolle, nimmt aber im Lauf der Geschichte ordentlich an Fahrt auf. Die wichtigsten Charaktere sind Rob, Laura und Cat. Die Freunde von Cat sind alle auf ihre eigene Art sympatisch. Auch Laura's Freunde schließt man insbesondere AM Ende sehr ins Herz. Cat ist der Schlüssel zur Geschichte und ich muss sagen, dass ich bereits am Anfang des Romans die richtige Einschätzung über ihren Charakter getroffen habe (diese aber immer wieder angezweifelt habe). Der äußere Schein trügt und Laura muss im Laufe des Romans sich ihren Dämonen stellen und verändert dabei nicht nur ihr eigenes Leben.
Für gemütliche Nachmittage daheim ein absolutes Muss!
