At 30, Katie Lavender thinks she is better than most when it comes to dealing with life’s surprises.

About the Author
The author of many bestselling novels, including Gardens of Delight which won the Romantic Novel of the Year Award, and her recent Sunday Times top ten bestseller, The Queen of New Beginnings, Erica now divides her time between Cheshire and Lake Como in Italy, where she strikes up conversation with unsuspecting Italians."I love writing about ordinary people living extraordinary lives, because that's what happens to each and every one of us. Without ever meaning to, we life a life of ups and downs and twists and turns, and somehow we survive it all" - Erica James

“It is a captivating read: beautifully written.” – Daily Telegraph
“You know you have made it as a storyteller writer when readers simply cannot put your book down… Erica James has this page-turning ability in abundance… I wouldn’t have thought this writer could get any better, but she has!” – Welsh Country
