THE LONELY HEARTS BEACH CLUB IBD

Sinopse

Hattie gazes at her husbandâÇÖs empty green-and-white-striped deckchair, the fabric blowing in the breeze. Blinking away tears, she clutches her own chairâÇÖs wooden frame with trembling hands. âÇÖWhat will I do without him?âÇÖáOliviaâÇÖs heart breaks watching her mother Hattie withdraw after her husbandâÇÖs sudden death. Without him, sheâÇÖs never been lonelier. Every morning, Hattie places a pair of tired old deckchairs looking out to sea. Staring at the empty chair beside Hattie, Olivia comes up with a plan: One deckchair for hire! Must bring good conversation and have own flask.áPosting the advert in a beachfront café, responses from other lonely locals start flooding in. ThereâÇÖs psychic medium Miriam who, besides talking to the dead, finds it therapeutic to belt songs from musicals. Glamorous Glenda has a penchant for teapot wine and skinny dipping. And even a reluctant Hattie canâÇÖt resist the endearing quirkiness of Jacob, walking the south-west coastal path in memory of his wife.áEveryone who sits in HattieâÇÖs deckchair has a little pearl of wisdom to share, each bringing a tiny bit of the familiar sparkle back to HattieâÇÖs eyes.áBut as more and more visitors take up residence in HattieâÇÖs deckchair - and her heart - will Hattie ever find a way to return to the woman she once was? And in the process, can Olivia also learn a lesson or two about reopening her own heart to love?áThe Lonely Hearts Beach Club is an absolutely heart-warming story about the power of the mother-daughter bond, family secrets and second chances, perfect for readers who love Jojo Moyes, Faith Hogan and Sheila OâÇÖFlanagan.áWhat readers are saying about Amy Miller:áâÇÖWonderful...
