Story
Life is full of second chances, if only you keep your heart open for them. Spring Hill Square is a pretty sanctuary away from the bustle of everyday life. And at its centre is Leni Merryman's Teashop on the Corner, specialising in cake, bookish stationery and compassion. And for three people, all in need of a little TLC, it is somewhere to find a friend to lean on.

When Lou Winterpicks up a dog-eared magazine in the dentist's waiting room and spots an article about clearing clutter, she little realises how it will change her life. What begins as an earnest spring clean soon spirals out of control. Lou's loved ones grow disgruntled. Why is clearing out cupboards suddenly more important than making his breakfast, her husband, Phil, wonders?

Publisher's Summary
The brand-new novel from the Sunday Times best-selling author of The Magnificent Mrs Mayhew - a gorgeous listen full of warmth and heartfelt emotion.
Laurie and Pete should never have met. But fate has pushed them together for a reason.
Six months ago, on the same night, Laurie and Pete both lost their partners. Struggling to manage the grief, they join the same counselling group - and meet each other.
From their sadness, Pete and Laurie find happiness growing, and they sense a fresh new beginning.
Except, the more they talk, the more Laurie begins to spot the strange parallels in their stories. Then Pete discovers a truth that changes everything.
But, as surely as a compass points north, some people cannot be kept apart.
My One True North is a story of friendship and what love means, of secrets uncovered, tea-shops on corners and the northern lights.

Romantic storytelling at its finest.
Story and Narration Perfect. Romantic, humorous and covered grief, sterility and magic. Isn't that just the definition of my life. Thank you Milly and Colleen.

Nice story to pass the time
Whilst I did have trouble getting into this book to begin with, once I was familiar with characters and back stories, I was able to really enjoy it. Likable characters with Interesting plots and sub-plots. I wasn't overly keen on Colleen Prendergast's style of narration - a bit too stilted and overly enunciated in some parts - but it wasn't the worst.
