Lena Koppel
October, 2026

Warm, witty and painfully honest, the Contrary Mary series is feelgood with a feel-bad edge, emotionally fearless six-book series about starting over when you are old enough to know better, and young enough to do it anyway. A journey through marriage, grief, divorce, desire, revenge and reinvention, following one deeply imperfect woman as she learns that changing your life can be every bit as messy as staying put.
Revenge is close at hand, but life gets in the way.
Maria and Annika have had enough of Stefan and decide to expose the man who has manipulated and hurt them both. During a dramatic summer on Öland, everything is put on the line.
At the same time, Maria is faced with new losses and old feelings. When she returns to Stockholm, grief, betrayal and unexpected reunions await her.
Live To Fight Another Day is the sixth and final instalment in Lena Koppel’s seriesContrary Mary. About friendship, love and the courage to keep choosing life, even when your heart is breaking.
