The wise and warm-hearted new novel from the bestselling author of The Accidental Mother.
Ellie Woods spends her days immersed in the escapist pages of the romantic novels she lovingly edits. But Ellie's reality is somewhat less rose-tinted. Once upon a time, Ellie had her 'happily ever after' moment when she married her beloved Nick, but fifteen years later her husband's tragic death leaves her alone with their soon-to-become-a-teenager son, faced with a mountain of debt, and on the verge of losing the family home.nnOn the brink of bankruptcy, Ellie finally succumbs to her sister's well-meant bullying and decides to rent out some rooms. And all too soon the indomitable Allegra with her love for all things lavender, Sabine on secondment from Berlin and estranged from her two-timing husband, and unreconstructed lads' mag aficionado Matt enter their ordered but fragile existence ' each with their own messy life in tow. And Ellie finds herself forced to step out of the pages of the romantic novels she hides behind, and learn to live ' and love ' again. nnMaybe a new chapter is about to begin for them all'
