The BRAND NEW gorgeous getaway read from Million-Copy No.1 Bestselling Author Alex Brown

Your perfect escape awaits! Three friends. Two secrets. And a holiday to remember forever.

Deedee Merriman loves her job running a travel agency but with turnover down and a big birthday fast approaching she’s thinking about the next chapter of her life and the changes she wants to make.

Determined to stay vibrant and keep a youthful outlook on life she invites her friends, Gina and Rosie to celebrate with her in New York, one of her favourite places and where she feels closest to her late husband, Joe.

On arrival, there’s a surprise, secret gift in store for Deedee of a small, ramshackle beach house in the beautiful Hamptons where Joe spent his childhood. But the house isn’t the only secret and discovering the truth will change everything….

Such a lovely story which I absolutely enjoyed
