Summary

It’s never too late to start a new chapter....

The utterly charming and feel-good new novel from the best-selling author of The Secrets of Sunshine and The Library of Lost and Found.

Liv Green loves losing herself in a good book. Her everyday reality is less romantic, cleaning houses for people who barely give her the time of day. But when she lands a job housekeeping for her personal hero and mega-best-selling author Essie Starling, she can't believe her luck.

When Essie dies unexpectedly, Liv is left with an astonishing last wish: to complete Essie’s last ever novel. To do so, change-averse Liv will have to step away from the fictitious worlds in her head and into Essie’s shoes. As she begins to write, she uncovers a surprising connection between the two women—and a secret that will change Liv’s life forever....

Heart-warming and uplifting, the new book from the author of The Library of Lost and Found is a reminder of how it’s never too late to change your own story—perfect for fans of All the Lonely People and The Authenticity Project

Preposterous slushy stuff but fun and I wanted to find out the end so I stuck with it
