Book description
A British When Harry met Sally from the new superstar of women's fiction.
Kate Miller re-made herself from a geeky teenager into the image of
modern woman, with a career in glossy magazines, a wedding to plan and a
flatmate who was her best friend. Then it all fell apart -
spectacularly, painfully and forever.
Ever since, she's hidden in New York, working as a dogsbody for a
literary agency. But when her father becomes ill, she has to return to
London and face everything she left behind.
She spends time with her upstairs neighbour, Mr Allan, an elderly
widower, taking long walks along London's canals and through leafy
streets. And she visits her adored but demanding father. But eventually
she has to face her friends - Zoe, Francesca and Mac - the friends who
are bound together with her forever, as a result of one day when life
changed for all of them.
Mac is the man she thought was the love of her life. Now they don't
speak. Can Kate pick up the pieces and allow herself to love her life
again? Praise for Harriet Evans:
'Enchanting' Jilly Cooper
'Fabulous…I loved it' Sophie Kinsella
A joy from start to finish - sharp, funny and modern as well as warm,
cuddly and nostalgic' Fiona Walker.
'A gorgeously feel-good book to snuggle up with in front of the fire' Heat
A lovely, funny heart-warmer…Evans' heightened comic style and loveable
characters make it effortlessly readable'
Marie Claire
'Events and characters fairly leap off the page in this touching,
engrossing and convincing novel. It's a rollicking ride of joy,
disappointment and self-discovery, which you'll want to devour in one
sitting' Daily Telegraph
'Will warm you up like a brandy on a winter's night…witty,
entertaining, self-reflective and full of characters you'll grow to
love' Heat Harriet Evans works in publishing as an editor, when she is
not writing books. She likes old films, Liquorice Allsorts and the new
cocktail she has recently invented, called 'The Harrie' (one part sloe
gin to three parts champagne). Harriet lives in London, where she grew
up.
