The Lemon Tree Cafe - Part One

This is Part One in a four-part serial from Sunday Times Top Ten bestseller Cathy Bramley.

Rosie Featherstone loves her high-flying job at a social media firm. So what if she isn't married and settled like her sister? A relationship would only get in the way of this workaholic's hectic schedule!

So when she unexpectedly finds herself at a loose end for a month, Rosie keeps busy by helping her Italian nonna serve espressos and biscotti at the Lemon Tree Cafe, a little slice of Italy nestled in the rolling hills of Derbyshire.

Worryingly though, the cafe's fortunes seem to have taken a turn for the worse since Rosie last went home. But with Nonna blind to the truth and angry at the idea of anyone interfering, the two are soon at loggerheads.

However, just when Rosie decides it's time to head back to reality, an old acquaintance suddenly reappears, and the prospect of life at the Lemon Tree Cafe begins to seem more appetizing . . .

The Lemon Tree Cafe is an irresistibly charming novel told in four parts - following the adventures of Rosie Featherstone in friendship, family and second chances. This is the first part.
