Summary

'Brimming with warmth, humour and a love of life… a wonderful escapade’ Fiona Gibson

Never say never to falling in love…

Val didn’t expect to be starting again in her seventies, but when life gives her lemons, Val is determined to make lemonade.

Settled into her new home – a picture-perfect fisherman’s cottage in the small Cornish seaside town of Lowenstowe – Val is ready to start a new chapter. And with her son due to get married next Christmas, there’s also the little job of finding herself a plus-one to help her face her ex-husband and his new girlfriend.

With the support of her neighbour Connie, and after decades of married life, Val takes the plunge back into the world of dating with trepidation and excitement. But can she remember how the single life works, let alone what her type is? There seem to be plenty of Mr Maybes, but no sign of Mr Right.

As the year passes, and as friendships and community life flourish, Val begins to blossom. And as Christmas approach, she might just decide she doesn’t need that plus-one after all - although never say never...

Judy Leigh is back with her trademark promise of laughter, love and friendship. The perfect feel-good novel for all fans of Dawn French, Dee Macdonald and Cathy Hopkins.

Not as good as usual

Read most of Judy Leigh’s books and this one is not up to her usual standard. Struggled to get invested in the characters and the plot was weak.

Wonderful warm, charming .

The story really portrays a true likeness to the Cornish life and it’s folk.
Each character was so believable.
Impressive way of putting across the importance of looking after our countryside.
Another success ……..

Disappointed

Was really looking forward to this book but unfortunately I feel the same as the other reviewers. The storyline didn’t go anywhere, kept on listening and hoping that something would liven it up. Love all the characters and narrator. Felt let down as I listened to the last chapter.

Not for me

Listened for 4 hrs then couldn’t continue. Found it a totally pointless story nothing to it at all. I don’t normally give up on a book but I’m afraid I had to with this one.
