A GOOD HOUSEKEEPING Most Anticipated Read 2026

A marriage on the rocks. A family in disarray. A weekend in the sun at a luxury, all-inclusive hotel. What could possibly go wrong?

Jo and Dave haven't had a holiday in years. They've had other things on their plate—failed IVF, the death of Dave's mother, doing up the bathroom.

So when Dave's flashy brother Teddy offers to fly in from Dubai and take them—along with his gorgeous young girlfriend and their curmudgeonly father—to a beachfront resort in the Med, the couple can hardly refuse.

But while romance might be on the cards for some, Jo and Dave soon find that tensions don't disappear in paradise. In fact, they might just get worse...

Set over the course of one scorching weekend, All In is a compulsively entertaining and bittersweet novel that asks—when life gets choppy, how does love stay afloat?
