'Brimming with warmth, humour and a love of life… a wonderful escapade’ Fiona Gibson

It's never too late to change…

After a health scare, 77 year-old spinster Barbara goes to convalesce in the sleepy picture-perfect English country village of Winsley Green with her sister Pauline. The sisters are chalk and cheese - Barbara, outspoken and aloof and Pauline, good natured and homely – so it’s not long before the tension starts to rise.

When Pauline accidentally knocks down a vagrant called Bisto Mulligan, the ladies find themselves with another houseguest. As he recovers, it becomes apparent that Bisto is not who he first seemed and, as the sisters get to know the kind and courageous man he really is, it’s clear Bisto could change both of their lives.

As the spring turns to summer, and the English countryside comes to life, can the three friends make the changes they need to, to embrace fresh starts, new loves, new journeys and new horizons. Or do old habits die too hard?

Funny, joyful and with a spring in its step that reminds you to live every day like it’s your last. Bestselling author Judy Leigh has once again written the perfect feel-good novel for all fans of Jennifer Bohnet, Rebecca Raisin and Cathy Hopkins.

Performance was amazing

A crotchety 77 year old woman goes to visit her small-town sister. Soon they run into a man who is at the bottom of his luck.

Usually a story with this many characters would have me confused and giving up, but both the unique descriptions and the talent of the voice actress made it easy to “see” each character and remember them.

A laugh out-loud heart-filled story. I recommend it for those of youwho like a fun story to escape into.

Totally Enjoyed

This book is very well written and the performance e was top notch! it had me giggling out loud at times and the ending left me satisfied and smiling. i am going to look for more books by this performer and by this author, too. Well done and thank you for having this one on the included list.

Light hearted and Funny

If you’re looking for a light hearted and funny read, this is for you. After a stressful day at work this book is exactly what you need. Lovely story, humor and happy ending. With all the craziness going on in the world, let yourself get lost in this sweet story.

You won't be disappointed with this story!! Enjoy

Wonderful, funny romance of yesteryear. Enjoyed the voice of the reader!! Loved the readers voice,, I could just picture Barbara!! Great listen lol

light but deep, entertaining, different love story

good story they are rated well of the story of love between siblings, friends, lovers and community.

Thought provoking and entertaining

This helped me understand my elderly (age 92) parent’s need for relationship. It also made me laugh. A nice diversion which is what I want in a novel.

Refreshing

After many cerebral, or stressful. or action-filled, or murders being solved, it was a delight to read about these old gals. Being an old girl myself, these ladies warmed my heart. One sweet and one cantankerous, both finding love in their old age.

While it wasn’t always fast moving, and frankly the outcome was a bit too neat and tidy, It was entertaining and had me laughing out loud throughout.

A lovely chaI recommend it.

Thoroughly enjoyable

Slow start of a whiney. complainingbwoman turned out to be delightful! Looking for more from this author.

A joy!

This was an absolute pleasure to read! It’s a wonderful story with fabulous narration. The characters are colorful in their reality and humor. This author tells a mighty fine story, and I’m now looking for more of her books.

this was my first time to read Judy Leigh, and i’m hooked.
the story grabbed me immediately, i’ve never read a book that started this way. and i read 3-7 books per month!
and then i was attached to so many characters and truly appreciated their growth
i get like i was in vacation in a town i want to live in.
also, i cherish an ending of this nature! i’m off to look for more from Judy…
