About this ebook
What surprises might life have in store for you?
A takeaway, TV and tea with two sugars is about as exciting as it gets for thirty-something Sophie Stone. Sophie's life is safe and predictable, which is just the way she likes it, thank you very much.
But when a mysterious benefactor leaves her an inheritance, Sophie has to accept that change is afoot. There is one big catch: in order to inherit, Sophie must agree to meet the father she has never seen.
Saying 'yes' means the chance to build her own dream home, but she'll also have to face the past and hear some uncomfortable truths...
With interference from an evil boss, warring parents, an unreliable boyfriend and an architect who puts his foot in it every time he opens his mouth, will Sophie be able to build a future on her own terms - and maybe even find love along the way?
A totally charming, modern love story for fans of Katie Fforde, Carole Matthews and Trisha Ashley.
Praise for Cathy Bramley:

'A witty, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy . . . I highly recommend it!' Miranda Dickinson
