'Gloriously uplifting and unashamedly warm-hearted' - Bestselling author FAITH HOGAN
'A lovely, summery read full of secrets and hope' - Bestselling author JO THOMAS
An unforgettable tale of romance, humour and heart set against the stunning backdrop of the Cornish coast, from the Sunday Times bestseller.
When Eden steps out of her beautiful coastal cottage to find a Speedo-wearing, suntanned stranger doing yoga in next door's garden, she is immediately on her guard. Since her ex-husband betrayed her in the worst possible ways, she has kept her distance from all men, taking refuge in her start-up coffee business.
But as she gets to know Levan, Eden begins to wonder if he might be different - until she discovers he's not quite what he seems. And when a long-buried family secret surfaces, her faith in those she loves most is shaken to the core.
As the secrets spill out, relationships old and new will be tested like never before.
Can Eden learn to trust again, and move past all the secrets of this Cornish summer?
A heart-warming read full of sun, sea, friendship and romance perfect for fans of SARAH MORGAN and TRISHA ASHLEY.
