A cosy Cornish village. A baker with a broken heart. And the community who piece it back together. After a bad breakup that left her reeling and the death of her beloved grandmother, Lola fled to the little Cornish village of Polcarrow to lick her wounds and pursue her lifelong dream of running her own bakery. Drawn there by a mysterious note in her grandmother's recipe book, before long Lola's cafe is the beating heart of the community. With best friend Freya, artistic biker Angelo and Polcarrow's unofficial 'grandad' Alf by her side, Lola is ready to embrace single life and throws herself into organising the village's Christmas celebrations and the small matter of a Christmas tree made entirely from lobster pots...! That is, until Polcarrow's rather handsome vicar Tristan crashes into her life and makes Lola reconsider everything. But finding love in Polcarrow has spanned many a generation for Lola's family. The unexpected arrival of her grandmother's belongings brings a tragic story of love and loss to Lola's doorstep. Through her letters and diary entries, Lola finds out that Polcarrow held a secret place in her grandmother's heart, but was the cause of a whole lot of pain for someone else close to her? With Christmas to prepare for and the sudden return of Tristan's overbearing ex, will love prosper for Lola and Tristan this Christmas or is heartbreak coming to Polcarrow once more?

Ingrid Dahl is a cheerful, twenty-nine-year-old librarian living in the cosy mountain town of Ridgetop. She and her boyfriend since college, Cory, have never discussed marriage; they're perfectly happy with the way things are. But when Ingrid's sister announces her engagement to a woman she's only been dating for two years, Ingrid and Cory suddenly feel pressured to start thinking about the inevitable: marriage and kids. The thing is, neither of them has ever been with anyone else. Shouldn't they sow their oats before settling down? They make the unorthodox decision to separate for a month to date other people, assuming that at the end of it, they'll reunite and start planning their nuptials. And Ingrid has the perfect man in mind for this relationship sabbatical--Macon Nowakowski, her cantankerous and completely adorable coworker for whom she's had a crush for years. But of course the best laid plans often go awry, and when Ingrid and Cory meet at the end of the month to resume next steps in their relationship, it's clear neither of them is ready to get back together...

The magical Quigley sisters return to bargain with fate once more in this follow-up to the “charming, uplifting, and utterly enchanting” (Lana Harper, New York Times bestselling author) national bestseller The Crescent Moon Tearoom. The Crescent Moon is thriving after a much-needed expansion, with the ladies who step through its doors continuing to seek comfort in the glimpses of their futures found in the swirls at the bottom of their teacups. Anne is leading the city’s witches as Chicago’s Diviner, Beatrix is swept away on a book tour across the country, and Violet has found her place with her feet swinging through the air above the circus crowds. That is, until the Quigley sisters find themselves stumbling on their chosen paths, and they are drawn back home in search of refuge in each other’s company. As Anne struggles to balance her growing responsibilities, Beatrix fears she has lost her gift for storytelling, and Violet is shaken after an accident at the circus, the future the sisters had drawn for themselves feels murkier than ever. And, when the threads of fate begin to unravel, Anne must lean on her sisters and team up with a mysterious—and oddly infuriating—necromancer to save the city from an uncertain destiny and help old friends find a happy end. With all three Quigleys back in the warm comfort of the Crescent Moon, they set out to bargain with Fate once more. But will the sisters find the courage to embrace who they have become while returning to what they left behind, or will the future unfold in a way that even a Quigley couldn’t have predicted?

Publishing to coincide with the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen's birth. It all started with a book that made me curious. When rare books dealer Rebecca Romney found an emerald clothbound edition of Evelina by Frances Burney, she was happy to discover that she'd stumbled across a novel by one of Jane Austen's favourite authors. Inspired by the connection between the two writers, she returned to Austen's books with a new lens, picking out clues sprinkled throughout her works that pointed to the writers she had admired. Austen read William Shakespeare, John Milton, Daniel Defoe, and Samuel Richardson, all authors Rebecca had read. But Austen also read Frances Burney, Ann Radcliffe, Charlotte Lennox, Hannah More, Charlotte Smith, Elizabeth Inchbald, Hester Piozzi, and Maria Edgeworth, all authors Romney hadn't. These female writers all sat proudly on Austen's bookshelf, but have disappeared from ours. Romney became fascinated with these writers and wanted to answer three important questions: What were the stories behind the lives of these women? Why have they disappeared from our bookshelves? Who wrote them out of history? She had a mission, an obligation: she needed to collect Jane Austen's bookshelf.

Every single one of the letters you're reading right now can tell a fascinating story, having been on a long linguistic, historical, political and social journey to reach this very page. The English alphabet is a tool that we've inherited down the centuries from ancient creators around the world. The alphabet hasn't always had its present form, but rather has undergone all sorts of changes and evolutions to suit the needs of the time. Did you know that five English letters come from a single graphic grandparent? Or that we may know the specific person who invented the letter G? Do you know why Z is the sixth letter for the Greeks, yet the last for us? Or why Q needs to be followed by U?Why Q Needs You takes readers on a journey through the English alphabet, not just to share fun facts, but to reveal the alphabet's hidden mechanisms and inspire a newfound sense of wonder in this ancient tool. It will not only leave the reader amazed by the letters they use every day but equipped to spot connections in languages across the world. It also aims to explain and defend the peculiar way English today uses these ancient symbols. Why does a silent final E turn hop into hope? Why are the Cs in circus pronounced differently? And why is there an L in salmon and a K in know?Each chapter in Why Q Needs U is a self-contained adventure into history, etymology, politics and more, but will also contribute to a general appreciation for how our alphabet developed, how it has changed, and how it fits into a wider world of writing.
