The Lemon Tree Café

The Heart-warming Sunday Times Bestseller




A deliciously entertaining story of secrets, surprises and second chances, from bestselling author Cathy Bramley.

------------------------------------
THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER from the author of My Kind of Happy
Rich espresso, delicious biscotti and juicy village gossip - will Rosie fall for this new way of life?

When Rosie Featherstone finds herself unexpectedly jobless, the offer to help her beloved Italian grandmother out at the Lemon Tree Cafe - a little slice of Italy nestled in the rolling hills of Derbyshire - feels like the perfect way to keep busy.

But Rosie is haunted by a terrible secret, one that even the appearance of a handsome new face can't quite help her move on from.

Then disaster looms and the cafe's fortunes are threatened . . . and Rosie discovers that her nonna has been hiding a dark past of her own. With surprises, betrayal and more than one secret brewing, can she find a way to save the Lemon Tree Cafe and help both herself and Nonna achieve the happy endings they deserve?
