Juliet Ashton - The Rise & Fall of Sadie McQueen (2nd Hand Paperback)
ISBN / GTIN-13 : 9781471168406
Synopsis
This is a novel about community, love, laughter and healing. Think Cold Feet meets David Nicholls, with a dash of the joy of Jill Mansell added for good measure.
It doesn't look like much from the outside, but Cherry Blossom Mews is a miraculous place. It's somewhere that finds you, rather than the other way around.
Sadie McQueen has leased a double fronted space in this small cul-de-sac in a culturally diverse corner of central London. The cobbles muffle the noise of double-deckers roaring past the arched gates. Turn right and you are in a futuristic maze of corporate glass monoliths. Turn left and you see a wide street with many different houses. Towering above the mews are the degenerating tower blocks of an infamous estate. The old folks home and the nearby school are both in need of TLC; the private members' club that set up shop in a listed Georgian building has been discreetly refurbished at huge expense.
Into this confusion comes Sadie. She fell in love with the street the moment she first twisted her ankle on its cobbles. Her double-fronted unit is now a spa. She has sunk all her money into the lease and refurbishment. She's sunk all her hope into the carefully designed treatment rooms, the calm white reception space, the bijou flat carved out of the floor above.
Sadie has a mission to connect. To heal herself from tragedy. Sadie has wrapped the mews around her like a warm blanket, after unimaginable loss and unimaginable guilt. Her hard-won peace is threatened, not only by the prospect of the mews going under but by a man aptly named Hero who wakes up her comatose heart.

External Reviews
‘Charming and uplifting’ - My Weekly.
"This was wonderful! I loved every character. One minute I was laughing with them next I had something in my eye. They were all so properly rounded, that I could see the mews and each individual space. Brilliant, sad to finish it . . ."
"This story is a mixture of sadness and humour. There are so many mixed up people who have been deceived in their pasts but can they help each other sort out a good future together. This story is for anyone who believes in second chances." - Google Reviews.
