About this listen

Shortlisted for the RNA’s Goldsboro Books Contemporary Romantic Novel Award.

A strange encounter. An unlikely friendship. But will it survive when they both know the truth?

As single mother Leah struggles to get her children ready one morning, the doorbell rings. Standing on the doorstep of their terraced house in Whitley Bay is a well-dressed stranger, Clio, who feels an emotional tie to the house that she can’t explain. The story should end there, but a long-buried secret is already on its way to the surface...

In some ways the two women couldn’t be more different: Leah’s a mother of two and the daughter of a barmaid; Clio’s a perennially single heiress to her baroness mother’s estate. But where Leah lacks grown-up company, Clio lacks any experience of the real world, and the unlikely friendship sparked by their curious first meeting offers both of them a welcome respite from the routine of their lives.

It is a friendship that will answer questions neither of them knew to ask, uncovering secret stories from the past that have stayed hidden for decades. But will it also be the catalyst for them to finally feel that they belong?

I enjoyed the story, although it was very predictable. I loved the female characters and found it to be a heart warming story. The narration was ok, apart from the terrible attempt at a Geordie accent. Overall it was a nice enough listen though

Relationships, families and the interweaving of lives are staples of Imogen Clark’s novels. This one does not disappoint and the delicate descriptions of how the secrets get disclosed and the people’s connections are revealed are a delight b

Another Imogen triumph!

Nearly returned this because of the narration. She was mostly whispering and so mike must have been turned up. I could hear all the consonants. T,B and C were quite annoying !! The time zones put me off too. Been better if it said which year it was in now.

Ok story
