Same Time Next Week

'Milly is the most wonderful, life-affirming writer about women's lives, love and friendship; her books are a joy.' JENNY COLGAN 'Real women, real life, real feeling, Milly brings it all.' CATHY BRAMLEY 'Milly writes with a huge heart about the challenges women face, particularly in later life. Her wisdom shines through, as does her humour: no-one can bring you from tears to smiles more quickly. Her books are warm, funny and real, and her stories celebrate triumph over adversity, the power of love, and the importance of friendship. Her heroines are down to earth yet reach for the sky and are truly inspirational, like Milly herself. She makes the world a better place.' VERONICA HENRY Welcome to Spring Hill, home to a square of independent shops and cafes, a thriving local community and nearby the newest venture, Ray's Diner. Here a group of women meet once a week over a cup of something warming. Amanda is primary carer to her elderly mother and one of the only women in a male-dominated company. Used to being second-best all her life, is this her time to finally break ranks and shine? Sky works at the repair shop, patching up old teddy bears, and their owners' hearts. But her heart beats for the one man who is strictly off-limits. Mel has been a loyal and loving wife to Steve for thirty years. Then when he goes to his old school reunion, life as she knows it will never be the same again. Erin is trying to get over a traumatic loss where her guilt weighs more than her grief. Can she find the first step to healing lies in sharing an hour with strangers once a week? Astrid is feeling in need of a change and a challenge. But when a fantastic opportunity presents itself, who is around to convince her she is worthy enough to take the risk? Can these women find the answers to their worries, acceptance, courage, support here? Join them at the same time next week to find out...
