Description

From the bestselling author of The Chocolate Promise and Three Gold Coins comes a colourful and heartwarming story about a cafe owner who is given a new chance at life after receiving a heart transplant - but her new life comes at a price. I suddenly knew, with crystal clarity, that it wasn't my memory I was experiencing. It was someone else's. It was his. Gabby McPhee is the owner of The Tin Man, a chic new cafe and coffee roasting house in Melbourne. The struggles of her recent heart transplant are behind her and life is looking up - until a mysterious customer appears in the cafe, convinced that Gabby has her deceased husband's heart beating inside her chest . . . By the internationally bestselling author of The Tea Chest, this is a profound and moving novel about the deeper mysteries of love and loss - and the priceless gift of life.
