The Pink House

The heartwarming new novel and perfect summer escape from the Sunday Times bestselling author

Summary

Enter THE PINK HOUSE, the heartwarming new novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Behind Closed Doors

'Stepping into the world of The Pink House is like getting home and discovering someone has already run a hot, bubbly bath for you after a hard day's work' CELIA ANDERSON


When Emma and Hugh move into The Pink House, it's a welcome new start.
Lazy summer afternoons in the sun, quiet Sunday mornings reading the paper.
Or so Emma hoped. Unfortunately, life in the country is far from a peaceful idyll.

There's Hugh's sister Sally, who lives in the garden cottage.
Their son's upcoming wedding, which they've promised to host.
The old barn which Emma wants to transform into an art gallery and a new career.

But Emma has it all under control. Until she runs into Rory McCloud -
the one who got away so many years ago . . .

Is The Pink House the only new beginning for Emma,
or could there be another fresh start on the horizon?


'An absolute joy. How I longed to live in the Pink House! Wise, funny, glamorously chaotic and achingly romantic' VERONICA HENRY

'Another fantastic family drama with superb characterisation from this much-loved author' WOMAN'S WEEKLY

'A joyful read about love and new starts' SUN

Reviews

  • I've always been a Catherine Alliott fan, and this was an absolute joy.
    A delicious tangle of secrets and hidden desire. Alliott's heroines are always a delight - like Bridget Jones' posher cousin: a bit dizzy, but with a huge heart and a strong sense of what's right and what's important. And in this case, that's family. A complicated, messy, imperfect family and all the baggage that brings, all playing out in the most gorgeous setting. How I longed to live in the Pink House!
    It's a modern fairy tale of mistakes and the lengths we go to to pretend everything is perfect: wise, funny, glamorously chaotic and achingly romantic.
