About this listen

What if you had always dreamed of something more? Nell McNamara has a happy life: her boyfriend, Olly, adores her, their four-year-old daughter, Petal, is the centre of their world, and Nell has a steady job in the local chip shop. When the chippy needs a makeover, Nell jumps at the chance to unleash the creativity fizzing inside her. Inspired by what she can achieve - and encouraged by the very best friends a girl can have - Nell is determined to try something new. Waving goodbye to the chip shop, she starts up a new business making her own line of must-have handbags, which are soon flying off the shelves. It seems Nell's dreams are finally coming true, but her success doesn't come without a price. Before too long, Nell has to ask herself if it's really possible to have it all….

Full of fun, love, and laughter, soak up the sunshine with Summer Daydreams.

Would you consider the audio edition of Summer Daydreams to be better than the print version?

The audio edition was much better for me as I travel a lot with work and helps pass the time on the motorway. Also Jane Collingwood is great bringing the characters to life with the different voices.

What other book might you compare Summer Daydreams to, and why?

Reminded me of The Girl's Guide to Homemaking by Amy Bratley
