The books of the month of July are After You by Jojo Moyes and Hedge Fund Wives by Tatiana Boncompagni.
After You by Jojo Moyes is the sequel to Me before You which we read in February and it takes off soon after Me before You ended. Lou's taken a job in an Irish themed bar at the airport. She's also bought a flat with some of the money Will left her. After having drank so much wine , one night she climbs to the roof top of her flat and while thinking about her grief over William's death she slips off and falls two stories down her building. She is taken to the hospital by paramedics and when she is discharged she begins to attend grief counselling sessions where she meets Sam, who happens to one of the paramedics that saved her life and they soon start dating. One night, Louisa gets a visitor who introduces herself as Lily Houghton-Miller and claims to be Will's daughter. She also introduces Lily to the Traynors.

Lou eventually discovers why Lilly has been erratic. She is being blackmailed...
