A gorgeous, unmissable story about it never being too late to start over Perfect for fans of Shari Low, Amanda Prowse, and Laura Pearson ☀️

How far would you go to change your life?

When Eliza Woods sees an advertisement for someone's whole life for sale - their house, car, all their belongings, even their clothes and cat - not to mention a trial-run in their job and an introduction to their friends... she decides it's fate.

Grabbing a different life with both hands is exactly what she needs. Even if 26-year-old Carrie's wildly-social life and job in a bar couldn't be more different from Eliza's quieter existence.

As for Carrie, she's heading off to Greece, desperate to run away from everything she's familiar with in England. The two women message each other after the deal has gone through, with Eliza excited to go for cocktails with Carrie's friends before her first shift at her new job.

What Carrie doesn't tell her is why she put her life up for sale. And what Eliza doesn't tell Carrie is that she's about to turn 75. And that isn't her only secret...

Don't miss this absolutely brilliant, escapist read. Available now!
