About this listen

As the blossom blooms on a quiet street in Notting Hill, a beautiful story of old love and new friendship is waiting to be discovered... Perfect for fans of The Keeper of Stories and The Reading List.

Joan has spent too long alone with her treasured memories of the man she walked away from one Manhattan evening many years ago. In need of company, she decides to advertise for a lodger.

Jess knows it's time to move on from her best friend's couch, where she's been crashing since her boyfriend emptied out her heart, and all her savings. But when she responds to an ad in the newspaper for a lodger on a quiet Notting Hill street, Jess has no idea how life's about to change.

When Jess meets Joan, she recognises a woman left behind by the world, and so she suggests a switch: if Joan will agree to go on-line, she will go off-line. And when Jess learns Joan has never forgotten the love of her life, a man she used to write to via the Lonely Hearts column, Jess decides to search for him, little realising that in Joan's story lies her own unexpected new beginning...

Critic Reviews

The warmest, most completely charming love story to sink into (Jenny Colgan)

I'm so glad I read this as an audio book! The narrators for Joan and Jess were excellent and really brought something extra to the book.

Overall, a sweet and charming book that was a little predictable but the characters were so lovely that I don't care.

Such a charming, uplifting story!
