About this listen

A BRAND NEW instalment in the gorgeously romantic Halfmoon Quay series from top-ten bestseller Sarah Bennett, perfect for fans of Cathy Bramley, Katie Fforde and Phillipa Ashley

Every book in the Halfmoon Quay series can be enjoyed as a standalone.

One flat. One friendship. One chance to change everything...

Kat Bailey’s life is going nowhere. Working at her father’s coffee shop in the picture-perfect Cornish holiday hotspot, Halfmoon Quay, makes her dream of becoming an author feel more fantasy than reality – and playing third wheel to her flatmate’s new relationship isn’t helping. So, when her childhood friend Harry Penrose offers her his spare room, it feels like an opportunity not to be missed.

Harry has his own dreams and if he could just dare to be honest, when he pictures his future, Kat is at the heart of it. But now they’re living under the same roof, Harry knows the risk of declaring his feelings. And when his plans clash with Kat’s family ties, the time has come for her to choose between the life she’s always known — and the future she’s only just begun to imagine.

Let bestseller Sarah Bennett transport you to the dreamy Cornish coast in this uplifting and gloriously romantic story of second chances, new beginnings, and the magic of finding home in the most unexpected places. Perfect for all fans of Cathy Bramley, Katie Fforde and Phillipa Ashley.

A thoroughly enjoyable and easy to follow read. It has all the ingredients for a sweet romance.
We are welcomed into Halfmoon Quay with ease and follow Kat on her journey of releasing herself from the sense of responsibility and guilt she has towards helping her dad.
Her family dynamics are unhealthy with a mum who has a wandering eye and a dad who is is like an ostrich with his head in the sand. Instead of living her own life, she supports her dad with his coffee shop until one day he pushes her too far. The beauty in how she manages that and her mothers disregard for her family is what shape her future.
Childhood friend Harry who has a beautiful family that isnt without its problems but still close and supportive , offers her a room to stay.
Of course there is a deep attraction between the two as they redefine their lives and love.
Its beautifully put together and makes for an enjoyable Spring read.
