About this listen
'Beautifully written and both heartbreaking and heartwarming' Jessica Redland
When Seren’s brother Andrew signs her up to Yorkshire Dating, only for them to recommend that she ‘gets a life’ before they find her a match, Seren has to admit that they may have a point.
She loves her job cooking at an elder day centre and her little flat, but it’s fair to say her life is a little short of hobbies and friends. Since she was young Seren has felt safer close to home, but now she’s a thirty-something divorcee, it’s time for a change.
Change arrives in the shape of alarmingly clever collie Kez, who Seren offers to take in ‘temporarily’, and kind but mysterious new colleague Ned. But as Ned and Kez tempt Seren out of her shell, it means facing her fears. And when Andrew finally reveals the secrets of their childhood, Seren’s need for safety suddenly makes sense.
A problem shared is a problem halved, and with friends by her side, Seren might be able to get a life that she loves at last.
A charming read from bestselling author Jane Lovering, perfect for fans of Jessica Redland, Beth Moran and Jo Barlett.
'A funny, warm-hearted read, filled with characters you'll love' Matt Dunn

The potential is good but ……..
This is one book I wish I had read not listened to
There were Great parts and boring parts.
Some great characters and then not so great.
I think what put me off was the narration.
Don’t get me wrong Rose has a lovely voice but she made this hard listening to.
Please don’t take this the wrong way Jane or Rose. I do plan to read and see if I enjoy more. When I have will leave a kindle review.

An uplifting and heart warming novel
Initially, I thought this would be more of a light heated read, but this novel continued to surprise me. From the insights into the lives of the residents at the day centre itself, to the complex characters of Seren and Ned. This novel kept me guessing, dealt with some hard-hitting issues in a sensitive way, and left me feeling uplifted. Thoroughly enjoyed.
