Description

The Sunday Times No. 1 paperback bestseller, warm and moving - another gem from the much-loved Cathy Kelly.
Keep a secret too long and it will creep out when you least expect it

Behind the shining windows and rose-decked gardens of Summer Street, single mother Faye, hides a secret from her teenage daughter Amber. Whilst thirty-year-old Maggie, hides one from herself.

When fiery Amber decides to throw away her future for love, and Maggie finds herself back home looking after her sick mother, secrets begin to bubble over.

The only person on Summer Street who appears to know all the answers is their friend Christie Devlin. Wise and kind, she can see into other people's hearts to solve their problems. Except that this time, she has secrets of her own to face
