Summary

The sun is shining in the quiet little seaside town of Sandybridge.

Sandybridge is the perfect English seaside town: home to gift shops, tearooms and a fabulous fish and chip shop. And it's home to Grace - although right now she's not too happy about it.

Grace grew up in Sandybridge, helping her parents sort junk from vintage treasures, but she always longed to escape to a bigger world. And she made it, travelling the world for her job, falling in love and starting a family. So why is she back in the tiny seaside town she'd long left behind, hanging out with Charlie, the boy who became her best friend when they were teenagers?

It turns out that travelling the world may not have been exactly what Grace needed to do. Perhaps everything she wanted has always been at home - after all, they do say that's where the heart is....

Critic reviews

"An irresistible, feel-good story infused with infectious humour." (Miranda Dickinson)
"A sweet, clever tale." ( Heat)
"If you've got a soft spot for director Richard Curtis' romcoms, then you'll happily devour this book in one sitting.... Utterly enjoyable." ( Stylist)

Confused.com

Love love love Ali McNamara and her fanciful style but all the time travel in this left me a little baffled. The story jumps around in time throughout and I'm not sure there's need to, it would have been a lovely story anyway. I did enjoy it though and would recommend to fans.

A type of spirit healing

A really good and very interesting story. Very different from the norm with a twist in the whole of the story line. A bit frustrating in parts as the heroin misses the plot but this is probably the " art" of this tale. Very enjoyable and well recommended

Lost in another world

It made you feel like you were there as you listened to the story. Can’t wait to get my next book by Ali MCNamara.

First Book

This was the first time that I have listened to this author. I initially got it due to the reader. Emma Powell is one of the readers like. I wasn’t sure at first about the book, however as it went on I started to enjoy it. Would definitely listen to another one of her books.
