Here is the fabulous new cover for Lucy Dillon’s new book ‘Walking Back to Happiness’ which is due out towards the end of the year. The lovely winter scene on the cover is stunning. Lucy recently won the Romantic Novelists’ Association’s ‘Romantic Novel of the Year 2010’ award for her book ‘Lost Dogs and Lonely Hearts.’ I’m looking forward to reading this latest book from Lucy.
Here’s the synopsis….
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, Coco, could help her daughter where she couldn’t.
Catching on, her neighbours ask Juliet for help with their pets too. But then so does Mark, the gorgeous spaniel-owner she meets out dogwalking. And before she knows it, Juliet realises she’s somehow become the town’s unofficial petsitter, and 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?
