Five women.
Twenty-two years of friendship.
One annual holiday that promises escape, connection and chaos in equal measure.
No matter how hectic their careers, relationships or family lives become, they keep their tradition alive: one week away together EVERY year. This time, the Mini Breakers are heading to Portugal.
But as the sun comes out, so do the secrets.
Between complicated love lives and the messy realities of middle age, this getaway might just be their most dramatic yet.
Scandals, revelations and questionable decisions are guaranteed when this group of gloriously imperfect, perimenopausal and fun-loving friends reunite.
THE MINI BREAKERS is a warm, sharp, wickedly funny story about the friendships that shape us.
