Description
'Lucy Dillon's books never fail to make me happy' Jenny Colgan
'Deeply moving' Sophie Kinsella
Sometimes the cracks in your heart can be mended in unexpected ways . . .
If Lorna's learned one thing, it's that courage is something you paint on like red lipstick, even when you're panicking inside. And right now, with the keys to the town's gallery in her hand, Lorna feels about as courageous as the anxious little dachshund trembling beside her.
Sick of life in the big city, Lorna's come home to fulfil her dream of running a successful art gallery. Desperate for change, Lorna just wants a fresh start but can she find it in Longhampton? This is where her tight-knit family shattered into pieces. It's where her doubts about herself took root and where she first fell in love and had her heart broken. It's everything she was running away from.
But life and love can surprise you and all Lorna has to do to let the light in is open her heart . . .
An uplifting and inspiring novel about second chances and soon to be realised dreams. Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, Veronica Henry and Lucy Diamond.

Where the Light Gets In is full of love, truth, art and dogs. I absolutely loved it. * Katie Fforde * Life-affirming, funny and authentic, Lucy Dillon's plot builds to a perfectly pitched emotional climax which will have you reaching for the tissues. * Sunday Express * Dillon has delivered another blinder . . . A bittersweet, moving examination of letting go and trusting one's own instincts in the face of self-doubt. * Sara Lawrence, Daily Mail * Lucy Dillon's books never fail to make me happy. * Jenny Colgan * A beautiful insightful and tender story. I feel bereft for having finished it. * Milly Johnson * I always know I'm in safe hands with a new Lucy Dillon novel and I also know that I'll be having a big, ugly, snotty cry before I reach the final page. A perfect Sunday afternoon treat of a book. * Sarra Manning, Red Magazine * This book is just beautiful inside and out . . . Written with such thought, such empathy, & capturing all those little nuances of living,loving and losing that make Lucy Dillon such a phenomenal storyteller. * Penny Parkes * Prepare for your heartstrings to be tugged! Moving and ultimately satisfying. * Fabulous Magazine * Praise for Lucy Dillon * : * Bittersweet, lovely and ultimately redemptive; the kind of book that makes you want to live your own life better * Jojo Moyes *More details
