What to expect

A spellbinding collection of fifteen stories from multi-million copy, internationally bestselling author Rosamunde Pilcher, published posthumously two years after her death.

In The Holiday, a wife surprises her husband of twenty-five years with a holiday full of Mediterranean sunshine, red rocks and blue seas in an effort to rekindle the romance they had before children.

The Eye of Love takes the reader to the bright spring sunshine and sparkling waves of a Northumbrian village where old flames meet again.

In A Place Like Home, a lonely young woman goes to recuperate in a Scottish countryside after a brief illness. The fruit orchards and fresh sea air offer much needed respite, but not so much as the handsome, mysterious farmer . . .

Each of the fifteen stories is a perfect slice of romance written with warmth and passion, featuring some wonderfully memorable, smart and feisty female characters that will transport the reader to another time and place.

'Her genius is to create characters you really care about' Daily Express

'Rosamunde Pilcher's warm spell is charming and utterly convincing' Daily Mail

'Pilcher's storytelling skills are serene and beguiling' The Times

'Pilcher's strength is knowing what she can do well and writing about what she
knows. She has a way of tapping into the emotional life of her readers and
making them care about characters not unlike themselves' Daily Telegraph

'Britain's most under-rated novelist' Sunday Times

'This warm-hearted family saga, beautifully written and expertly paced, is just as
satisfying now as when it was first published more than 30 years ago.' Daily Mail
