Five Things I Love About You (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781785130809)

From bestseller Clare Swatman, the BRAND NEW heartwarming story about a woman in need of a fresh start who's ready to trust in fate to get it. Perfect for fans of Lucy Diamond, Beth Moran and Jill Mansell.

Forty-nine-year-old Miranda is at a crossroads.

Her children have left home, her perfectly civilised divorce is more than a decade behind her and her romances since have been lacklustre, and her career has stalled. The bright spots in her life are best friends Sophie and Kirstie, but it's clear something has to change.

So, when she's knocked off her bike and wakes up in hospital bruised but not broken, Miranda wonders if the universe is trying to tell her something. And when she starts to be plagued by recurring dreams featuring the same featureless man, Sophie insists it's a sign.

Her repeating dreams offer five clues to the man's identity so, with nothing to lose, Miranda sets off on a journey to the future she's always longed for. Somewhere there's a life and a love waiting for Miranda, but will she grasp it with both hands or will she let her destiny slip through her fingers even when it's right in front of her...

An uplifting, magical story about fresh starts, best friends and soulmates. Perfect for all fans of Lucy Diamond, Beth Moran and Jill Mansell.
