What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

The uplifting and escapist new romcom and perfect holiday read for summer from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Island in the Sun and One Enchanted Evening.


In a city full of dreams, will she find her own…?

It’s 1968 and it’s cold when Felicity arrives in London to stay with her mother, improve her English - and meet a suitable man.

She is already missing her home in Provence and her father, his new wife and their extended family. But she’s only in London for a year she tells herself - and then she can go back to France and do what she really wants and become a painter.

But then she bumps into Oliver who, she thinks, is the most interesting man she has ever met. He lives on a barge for one thing and has a collection of jobs, but his passion is looking for hidden treasures along the shores of the river Thames.

In a word, he’s a mudlarker - and before long Felicity is mudlarking too. She’s also pursuing her dreams and painting scenery for Oliver’s actor friends.

But is Oliver a ‘Suitable Man’ of whom her mother will approve? Felicity doesn’t think so …

Warm, witty, and uplifting, get ready to fall in love with Katie Fforde’s heart-warming new romantic novel.
