Inscrivez-vous à LibraryThing pour découvrir si vous aimerez ce livre Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre. Dull and badly written. All 'tell' rather than 'show' with each character ruminating endlessly about their motives and wondering what the other characters are thinking. The bored reader can't wonder themselves as we get to hear inside everyone's head. And when there is conversation it is of the 'would you like a coffee?', 'Yes, please'. 'With milk' 'yes please'. 'And sugar', 'yes thanks' variety. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

In the heart of the Cheshire countryside, Cholmford Hall Mews, a converted eighteenth-century barn, is far more than an exclusive home to its new inhabitants. For Jessica Lloyd, it is a haven where she can recover from a love affair long past its sell-by date; Amanda Fergusson, whose marriage is one of straightforward convenience, is determined to get the most out of the situation; for Kate Morris it offers a fresh start where her love for newly divorced Alec can flourish; and for Josh Crawford, his new home offers a sanctuary where he can come to terms with the most devastating news of his life. In their different ways, all the newcomers to Cholmford Hall Mews are searching for something - love, peace, a sense of belonging. But will they find rather more than they bargained for...?

Then there's Jessica, a writer, who we first meet in Corfu as she finishes her novel, and then leaves the philandering man she was living with, flying back to the UK in part to care for her mother (who is extremely independent and has no wish to be cared for).
Finally, there's Josh, a personable young man who works with his brother in the clothing industry. He seems rather an abrupt, shy kind of person but we soon discover that he has a serious medical problem which impinges on his life in different ways.
It's a character-driven novel, with a lot of sub-plots that mostly work out well in the end. Fairly predictable, but enjoyable all the same for a good light read at a busy time of year.
