About the Book
Originally published: Great Britain: Simon & Schuster UK Ltd., 2017.Book Synopsis
From the internationally bestselling author and "prolific queen of contemporary Irish popular fiction" (The Sunday Times), a heartwarming novel set in Spain where the new tenants of a seaside apartment building test the limits of marriage, money, and ambition. In a beautiful Southern Spanish town, where the sea sparkles and orange blossoms scent the air, the gates of a brand new apartment complex, La Joya de Andalucía, glide open to welcome the new owners. Anna and Austen MacDonald, an Irish couple, are preparing to enjoy their retirement to the fullest. But the demands of family cause problems they could never have foreseen and shake their marriage to the core. Sally-Ann Connolly Cooper, a feisty Texan mother of two young teenagers, is reeling from her husband's infidelity. La Joya becomes a place of solace for Sally-Ann, in more ways than one. Eduardo Sanchez, a haughty native from Madrid, has set out with single-minded determination to become el presidente of the complex's management committee. But pride comes before a fall. Jutta Sauer Perez, a sophisticated German who aspires to purchase her very own apartment in La Joya works hard to reach her goal. Then the unthinkable happens. As their lives entwine and friendships and enmities develop, it becomes apparent that La Joya is not quite the haven they all expect it to be...Review Quotes
"Fans of character-driven, relationship-based women's fiction will enjoy spending time in sunny Spain. Recommended for fans of Marian Keyes and Cathy Kelly."-- "Booklist"
"There's something wonderfully enjoyable about Scanlan's books, which somehow manage to be deliciously escapist and grounded in real, recognisable ordinary life at the same time."--The Irish Independent
