About the Book
In the idyllic seaside town of St Carys in Cornwall, Sophie is working as a photographer and putting the past firmly behind her.
When Josh Strachan moves back to St Carys to run the family hotel, he can't understand why Sophie has zero interest in letting
St Carys has more than its fair share of characters, including the charming but utterly feckless surfer Riley Bryant, who has a massive crush on Tula. Riley’s aunt is superstar author Marguerite Marshall.
And Marguerite has designs on Josh’s grandfather … who in turn still adores his glamorous ex-wife, Dot …Just how many secrets can one seaside town hold?
Love has the ability to change people, sometimes for ever. And the consequences are impossible to predict.
About the Author
Jill Mansell lives with her family in Bristol. She used to work in the field of Clinical Neurophysiology but now writes full time. She watches far too much TV and would love to be one of those super-sporty types but basically can’t be bothered. Nor can she cook – having once attempted to bake a cake for the hospital’s Christmas Fair, she was forced to watch while her co-workers played frisbee with it.
But she’s good at Twitter!
