Life is full of second chances, if only you keep your heart open for them.

By: Milly Johnson

Narrated by: Colleen Prendergast

The magical and feel-good novel from the Sunday Times bestseller

Life is full of second chances, if only you keep your heart open for them.

Spring Hill Square is a pretty sanctuary away from the bustle of everyday life. And at its centre is Leni Merryman's Teashop on the Corner, specialising in cake, bookish stationery and compassion. And for three people, all in need of a little TLC, it is somewhere to find a friend to lean on.

Carla Pride has just discovered that her late husband Martin was not who she thought he was. And now she must learn to put her marriage behind her and move forward.

Molly Jones's ex-husband Harvey has reappeared in her life after many years, wanting to put right the wrongs of the past before it is too late.

And Will Linton's business has gone bust and his wife has left him to pick up the pieces. Now he needs to gather the strength to start again.

Can all three find the comfort they are looking for in The Teashop on the Corner? And as their hearts are slowly mended by Leni, can they return the favour when she needs it most?©2014 Milly Johnson (P)2014 Simon & Schuster UK

Beautiful story

Heartwarming story. Beautifully written and performed. The cast of characters and the community they build touched my heart.

Lovely, warm and cozy

Sometimes you just need a good soak in a metaphorical warm bath with a cup of steaming tea or a glass of earthy red wine.

TW/spoiler for dead children.

Milly delivers again

I can count on Milly Johnson for great romance, funny sub plots, little twists, and happy endings. Narration is on point; this time, Sean’s Irish accent was especially enjoyable for me.

Marvelous story

I liked the surprises in the story. They kept me listening when I should have been doing other things.

Can I have a tea shop on the corner?

I thoroughly enjoyed this read! The characters are lovely, even though I do wish there’s a little more diversity in the story. Some of it is a little predictable, but it doesn’t get in the way of enjoying the story. I wish there was a tea shop on the corner near me to find such friends!

A lovely world to get sucked into

This is my second book by this author and it did not disappoint. There were parts of the story that were predictable, but the author creates a lovely world that I love being in. The characters are all interesting and the reader does an excellent job of delivering the dialogue with various accents and subtle meaning in their tone. I will be buying a third book by this author and I hope it’s the same reader.

Characters I wish I knew

I enjoyed visiting this little place. The characters were people I wish I knew in real life. There were so many different characters that I was sometimes confused, but it didn't really matter. This was a perfect blend of story, people, charming setting, and a good message.

awesomeness in a cup of tea

Heartfell and all things good. Milly you should be placed on a pedestal. wow I enjoyed this soooo much. every time I listen to one of your books I inherite something special
