Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Dorothy Koomson and Liane Moriarty, this is an uplifting and heartfelt novel from the author of The Memory Book, which was featured in the Richard & Judy book club 2014. "I immediately read The Memory Book and it's Wonderful...I'm so happy because she's written other books and its so lovely to find a writer you love who has a backlist." (Marian Keyes). Is there a cure for a broken heart? Once upon a time, Ellen Woods 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 and a mountain of debt. On the verge of losing the family home Ellen decides to rent out some rooms, and all too soon a whole host of characters enter her ordered but fragile existence - each with their own messy life in tow. But will this be enough to pull her out of her grief so she can learn to live - and love - again?
