BRAND NEW from NUMBER ONE bestselling author Laura PearsonPraise for Laura Pearson:‘Tender and beautiful… As hopeful as it is heart-breaking… I loved it. ’ Amy Beashel‘This beautifully written story of friendship, love, loss and second chances captured my heart.

I adored Mabel and her unlikely gang of colourful characters… Leaves you feeling warm, hopeful, and satisfied. ’ Lisa Timoney‘Mabel Beaumont is an absolute treasure… Laura Pearson cleverly, gently, peels back the layers of Mabel’s and her friends’ lives in a way that hurts, then soothes, your heart… An uplifting, life-affirming joy of a novel!’ Emma Robinson‘I’ve been inundated with books in the uplit genre but this is by far the best I’ve read… moving, life-affirming and utterly wonderful.

’ Matt Cain‘I absolutely loved this book… I adore an older protagonist… who is feisty and not afraid to speak her mind. The story is like a warm hug – but it had spark and wit and humour too.

I was bereft when I finished it (far too) late last night!’ Clare Swatman‘Wow. Seriously.

Just beautiful. So many wonderful elements… So many memorable characters… Beautiful and utterly affecting.

’ Louise Beech‘Charming, warm and moving… A beautifully written story about love and longing, and a poignant reminder that it’s never too late to follow your heart. ’ Holly Miller‘I adored it… A heartbreakingly beautiful story about love in all its different forms.

(And she made me cry again, of course). Bravo.
