Harriet Evans Boxed Set
Author: Harriet Evans
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1451665725
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 1422
Book Description
A trio of novels from international favorite and bestseller Harriet Evans! This eBook boxed set includes three of Harriet Evans's compelling and heartrending novels about love, heartbreak, and family relationships, and an excerpt from Love Always. Going Home Leaving her tiny flat in London—and a whole host of headaches behind—Lizzy Walter is making the familiar journey back home to spend Christmas with her chaotic but big-hearted family. And by the time the Walters gather for a summer wedding, the stakes have never been higher—for Lizzy, for her family, and for love. A Hopeless Romantic With her life in tatters around her, Laura Foster agrees to go on vacation with her parents. After a few days of visiting craft shops and touring the stately homes of England, Laura is ready to tear her hair out. And then she crosses paths with Nick, the sexy, rugged estate manager. She finds she shares more than a sense of humor with him—in fact, she starts to think she could fall for him. But is Nick all he seems? Or has Laura got it wrong again? Will she open her heart only to have it broken again? The Love of Her Life Kate Miller, a Londoner-turned-New Yorker, is in love with the pace and rhythm of Manhattan. But deep down, she knows that there is something—someone—more to love. But when her father becomes ill, Kate realizes it's time to return and face the friends and the memories she left behind. What really happened before Kate left London? Can she pick up the pieces and allow herself to love life again? Love Always When Natasha Kapoor returns to her grandparents’ idyllic coastal home for her beloved grandmother’s funeral, her life is at a turning point. After the funeral, Natasha’s grandfather gives her the long-lost diary of her aunt Cecily. Is it possible the diary is just the inspiration Natasha needs to take a fresh look at her future, and maybe even give love a second chance?
