The Fall and Rise of Sadie McQueen

Viac o knihe

This novel explores community, love, laughter, and healing, reminiscent of Cold Feet and David Nicholls, with a touch of Jill Mansell's joy. Cherry Blossom Mews may appear unassuming, but it is a remarkable place that finds its inhabitants. Sadie McQueen has leased a double-fronted space in this culturally rich corner of central London, where cobbles soften the noise of passing buses. A right turn leads to a modern corporate area, while a left reveals a diverse street lined with various homes, overshadowed by aging tower blocks. Nearby, an old folks’ home and a school require care, while a private members' club has been lavishly refurbished. Sadie fell in love with the mews the moment she stumbled on its cobbles. She has invested all her savings into transforming her unit into a spa, complete with serene treatment rooms and a cozy flat above. Her mission is to connect with others and heal from past tragedies. The mews has become her sanctuary after enduring profound loss and guilt. However, her hard-won peace is jeopardized not only by the potential failure of the mews but also by a man named Hero, who stirs feelings she thought were long dormant. Sadie has much to offer and learn, discovering that some ghosts are more tangible than she imagined.
