Book excerpt: The perfect, feel-good read to put a huge smile on your face! ◆"I loved this book nearly as much as I love crafting♥" ◆"J C Williams' books make me a happier person. As simple as that." ◆"Delicious humour mixed with a delightful tale. I loved it★★★★★" It's not that single mum Charlotte Newman is completely and utterly obsessed with crafting, necessarily. Sure, she has balls of wool stashed everywhere like a squirrel stores nuts, and more needles than a tattoo parlour. But that doesn't mean she has a problem, right? Finding herself between jobs, Charlotte fills her time teaching crafting skills at the local nursing home. Encouraged by how positively the residents respond, the possibility of a career doing what she adores fills her mind. The first step towards that ambition is creating a crafting hub for the community - The Crafternoon Sewcial Club. When a local charity announces a major knitting-themed fundraiser, Charlotte sees the ideal stage to put her new club firmly on the crafting map and drum up new members in the process. Unfortunately, not everybody is on board with her vision for a crafting club, as it turns out. Indeed, some are even hoping to see Charlotte's dream come crashing down around her. Still, she won't let a minor issue like that derail her plans... To ensure victory, then, she'll need to rally her new members and ask her friends from the nursing home to get those needles clicking faster than a hummingbird's wings! If you adore crafting, knitting, sewing, crochet while drinking tea with friends, you'll love this book!

I feel like I'm there with them, part of the gang!" "J C Williams' books make me a happier person. Gentle humour at its best." "Fun...feel-good...and lovely. Oh, did I say fun?" The Crafternoon Sewcial Club's going from strength to strength, although Charlotte Newman is far from resting on her laurels. And why would she? After all, she's living her perfect life. So, when a chance encounter highlights the sorry plight of parents unable to afford school uniforms, Charlotte was itching to develop a solution. And before too long, she'd initiated a clothing exchange programme christened ReCyCool. Unfortunately, news of her fledgling enterprise was painfully slow to travel around the Isle of Man, with it in real danger of falling at the first hurdle. So if it had any chance of succeeding, Charlotte would have to arrange something spectacular to raise the profile and get the word out. Then, after considerable deliberation, the solution presented itself, and the wheels of the island's very own Sewing Bee competition were set in motion. And who better to help Charlotte host the hottest event in the island's crafting calendar than Joyce, Beryl, Larry and the rest of her Crafternooners.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ◆The craftiest gang on the Isle of Man are back for another outing. Sew, what are you waiting for...! Following a hectic year immersed in all things crafting, Charlotte Newman was looking forward to a much-needed holiday. And the fact a few friends from the Crafternoon Sewcial Club were also tagging along was an added bonus as far as she was concerned. But before she could let her hair down too much, there was some unexpected interest in her expanding crafting clubs in the form of a BBC news reporter, eager to record a feature about her various initiatives. Hopeful this national exposure could be the catalyst to expand her community programme, Charlotte is, quite rightly, wanting to put on a good show for the cameras, ably supported by her wonderful members. And once the news feature aired, the feedback received was overwhelming, with Charlotte's dazzling personality shining through. So much so, in fact, that it wasn't too long before a life-changing opportunity to host a major crafting TV show fell in Charlotte's lap. Unfortunately, there was also a major downside in accepting, as in doing so, Charlotte faced the prospect of having to relinquish much of her direct involvement in the clubs she'd invested both her heart and soul into...

With her confidence shattered and her future uncertain, on impulse she rents a cabin for a year on Australia's Great Barrier Reef. However Turtle Island, alive with sea birds and nesting Green turtles, is not the retreat she expected. Here she finds love—for the eccentric islanders who become her family; for Tom, the laid-back turtle whisperer; and for the turtles whose ancient mothering instincts move her to tears. But Anna finds that even on her idyllic drop in the ocean there is pain, and as the months fly past her dream for a new life is threatened by a darkness that challenges everything she has come to believe about the power of love. Evocative and thought-provoking, A Drop in the Ocean is a story about second chances and hard lessons learned in the gentlest of ways.

Connie is tired of solving one family crisis after another - usually involving her unruly grandchildren - while her husband Roger spends all day at his beloved golf course. Surely it must be time for her to shake off her apron and start living again? So Connie packs a bag, gets in her little green car and drives off ... As Connie journeys from England to Scotland on an unexpected adventure, she finally begins to rediscover herself. And she starts to wonder, will she ever be ready to return home? Or will this summer change her life forever?"--

Book excerpt: "The feel-good summer read you've been looking for! ★★★★★" "I love J C Williams! I'm a happier person with his books in my life." "Deliciously funny, poignant and totally uplifting. I defy you to not smile reading this book." Libby Tebbit had absolutely had her fill of big-city life. So, when presented with the opportunity to take over her gran's shop, The Bookshop by the Beach, she'd have been crazy to turn it down, right? Idyllic notions of lazy days by the ocean shore, shooing away the surplus eligible bachelors circling around her like squawking gulls, filled her head. These things were certain to await her, she felt confident, in this next glorious chapter of her life - this wonderful seaside adventure on the Isle of Man. Only her business acumen was about as useless as her choice in men. Still, nothing ventured nothing gained. And, besides, what's the worst that could happen? Well, quite a lot as she'd soon discover. In a relatively short amount of time, a business that'd operated fairly successfully for forty years was on its knees - and, sadly, Libby's dance card was also emptier than her bank account. She wasn't ready to let go of her dream so easily. Not just yet. All she needed, then, was a plan to turn around the ailing fortunes of The Bookshop by the Beach, and fast! The feel-good, romantic comedy read for the summer. If you enjoy Sophie Kinsella or JOJO Moyes then you'll adore this book.

Book excerpt: 'An evocative mix of history, food and storytelling.' EVENING STANDARD BEST FICTION 2021 'a heart-warming, heart-breaking story of love, life, family and, of course, baking.' RUTH HOGAN Cyprus in the run up to the civil war of the 1970s... the threat of it hangs in the atmosphere like a fine mist. A terrible thing, war. Against this backdrop of war and violence, the island's inhabitants make the best they can of their lives, building friendships, falling in love, having children, watching people die, making mistakes. Maria Petrakis, however, flees a brutal marriage on the island where she has always lived for London and a new start. She opens a bakery on Green Lanes in Harringay - the centre of the small Greek Cypriot community whose residents have settled there to escape the war and start again. Here she comes into her own as she heals and atones through the kneading of bread and the selling of shamali cakes and cinnamon pastries to her customers. There are glimpses of the lives of her neighbours, friends and customers as they buy their bread and cakes. There's Mrs Koutsouli, whose heart was broken when her handsome son married a xeni, an English woman with fish-eyes and yellow hair. There's Mrs Pantelis, driven half-mad with the grief of losing her son, Nico, in the war. And there's Mrs Vasili who claims to be related to Nana Mouskouri and grows her hair upwards so she can feel closer to God. Finally, there's Elena, Maria Petrakis' daughter-in-law, who has been suffering with the blackness since having a baby, and whom nobody knows quite how to help. The Making Of Mrs Petrakis is a story about the limited choices women sometimes find themselves confronting. It's a story about repression and mental illness and the devastation it can wreak on lives. But above all, it is a story of motherhood and love and of healing through the humble act of baking.

Book excerpt: The forecast is calling for a reluctant homecoming and regrettable decisions with a strong chance of romance… When Sonny Dunes, a SoCal meteorologist whose job is all sunshine and seventy-two-degree days, is replaced by a virtual meteorologist that will never age, gain weight or renegotiate its contract, the only station willing to give the fifty-year-old another shot is the very place Sonny’s been avoiding since the day she left for college—her northern Michigan hometown. Sonny grudgingly returns to the long, cold, snowy winters of her childhood…with the added humiliation of moving back in with her mother. Not quite an outsider but no longer a local, Sonny finds her past blindsiding her everywhere: from the high school friends she ghosted, to the former journalism classmate and mortal frenemy who’s now her boss, to, most keenly, the death years ago of her younger sister, who loved the snow. To distract herself from the memories she's spent her life trying to outrun, Sonny throws herself headfirst into covering every small-town winter event to woo a new audience, made more bearable by a handsome widower with optimism to spare. But with someone trying to undermine her efforts to rebuild her career, Sonny must make peace with who she used to be and allow her heart to thaw if she’s ever going to find a place she can truly call home. Don't miss bestselling author Viola Shipman's charming new novel, THE WISHING BRIDGE—where an ambitious executive rediscovers the magic of family, friendship, home...and Christmas!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The funniest, feel-good books I've ever read!" "You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll love them!" "The characters have become like family. I'm crying one minute and laughing the next. Brilliant!" Life rarely stands still when you surround yourself with old folk with more energy than a sugar-fueled toddler and, for Jack Tate, well, he wouldn't have it any other way. The Lonely Heart Attack Club was going from strength to strength, and the gang were eager to sink their (false) teeth into their next challenge. After seeing first-hand the benefits that internet access has brought to a couple of simpletons like Ray and Grandad, the team set their sights on providing tablet computers to those in the community that would benefit from them the most. However, that would take a serious amount of dosh, so they would need to double their fundraising efforts. Unfortunately, it would appear that not everyone was on board with the charitable work, and a serious error in judgement threatened to undo all of their good work and leave the charity in ruins. Still, they were a resilient bunch, and they'd fight on regardless. And the perfect way to drag yourself through a crisis? Another world-record attempt, of course!

Book excerpt: When Sylvie's husband passed away, she'd barely hung her black dress back in the closet when three widows on Wilder Lane showed up on her doorstep. Who had time to properly mourn when an adventure spanning the globe awaited her? After putting their own needs on the back burner to raise their families, Sylvie, Doris, Alice, and Marge struggle to find purpose now that their children are grown, and their husbands are gone. Loneliness pushes them together while they knit away the rest of their days. Then one night, a whiskey-filled pact catapults these ladies onto the adventure of a lifetime. Each widow gets one wish, one wild adventure, she's dreamed of doing her whole life. With their wishes tucked away on notes inside their knitting basket, they pull them out, one at a time, vowing to do whatever it takes to help each other fulfill their wildest desires. Hilarity ensues as these four diverse women stretch their boundaries to go where no widows have gone before. They stare death in the face, have cops hot on their tail, and shed away the responsibilities they've shouldered their whole lives. The Wilder Widows soon find out their lives aren't over... in fact, in this second act, their lives are just beginning.

Book excerpt: From the USA Today bestselling author of Five French Hens and The Old Girls' Network comes a story of the journey of a lifetime across Europe in pursuit of memories, love, and new adventures. It’s always a good time for a road trip... When 82-year-old Lil decides to book herself, her 65-year-old daughter, Cassie, and her friend Maggie on a bus trip across Europe, she hopes for a little adventure to counteract the monotony of life. Along with three members of the Salterley Tennis Club and the Jolly Weaver football team, whose ideas of a good time are rather different to Lil’s and strikingly at odds with each other’s, the merry band of travellers set out on their great adventure. From moving moments on the beaches of Normandy, outrageous adventures in Amsterdam, to the beauty of Bruges and gastronomic delights of France, the holiday is just the tonic Lil, Maggie and Cassie needed. And as the time approaches for them to head home, Lil makes an unexpected discovery - even in her advancing years, men are like buses – there isn’t one for ages then two come along at once. Is Lil ready to share her golden years, and can the ladies embrace the fresh starts that the trip has given them. Or is it just too late to change... Judy Leigh is back with her trademark promise of laughter, happiness, friendship, and timeless lessons in how to live. Perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber, Dawn French and Cathy Hopkins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can a wedding dress save a bunch of hardened crims? The Full Monty meets Orange is the New Black in a poignantly comic story about a men's prison sewing circle. 'This is a deft and unlikely story in an uncommon setting about an estranged daughter, her jailed father and a very bad idea about a dress. It all makes for a warm, funny union of foes and a lovely encounter with what matters.' Rosalie Ham Derek's daughter, Debbie, is getting married. He's desperate to be there, but he's banged up in Yarrandarrah Correctional Centre for embezzling funds from the golf club, and, thanks to his ex-wife, Lorraine, he hasn't spoken to Debbie in years. He wants to make a grand gesture - to show her how much he loves her. But what? Inspiration strikes while he's embroidering a cushion at his weekly prison sewing circle - he'll make her a wedding dress. His fellow stitchers rally around and soon this motley gang of crims is immersed in a joyous whirl of silks, satins and covered buttons. But as time runs out and tensions rise both inside and outside the prison, the wedding dress project takes on greater significance. With lives at stake, Derek feels his chance to reconcile with Debbie is slipping through his fingers ... A funny, dark and moving novel about finding humanity, friendship and redemption in unexpected places. 'Overflowing with humour and heart. If you like a story about misfits making good, but with the added lustre of silk and satin, then this book is for you.' Natasha Lester 'This deliciously original, immersive and darkly funny novel is full of hope and heart. A refreshing take on the theme of redemption and second chances from an assured writer.' Joanna Nell 'Funny and moving' Sun-Herald 'Funny, heartfelt, and gorgeously written, The Dressmakers of Yarrandarrah Prison is a highly original and extremely enjoyable read' Better Reading
