Since November 2009Book Title: Walking Back to Happiness by Lucy Dillon
July 14th, 2010 by Chloe
I posted a while ago about Lucy Dillon’s 3rd novel which is due out on 9th December, and the title has finally been revealed. Walking Back to Happiness is definitely a book I’ll be picking up, and sounds like the perfect winter read. Here’s the synopsis in case you missed it before:
“Juliet’s been in hiding. From her family, from her life, but most of all from the fact that Ben’s not around anymore.
Her mother Diane can’t do anything to help. But, when she insists Juliet look after her elderly Labrador, it becomes clear that perhaps the dog, Raffles, could help her daughter where she couldn’t.
Catching on, her neighbours David and Bernie ask Juliet for help with their pets too. But then so does Charlie, the gorgeous (but negligent) spaniel-owner she meets out dogwalking. And her Irish builder Lorcan.
Gradually Juliet realises she’s somehow become the town’s unofficial petsitter. And also that she is now privy to all the lives and secrets of everyone whose animals she’s caring for.
But as her first winter alone approaches, she finally begins to wonder if it’s time to face up to her own secrets? To start rebuilding her own life? And maybe – just maybe – to fall in love again?”
