Life Begins at 50! — Celia Anderson

The uplifting and inspirational new novel from the TOP TEN bestselling author of 59 Memory Lane

New friends, new flame, new fun . . . Can it be true that life begins at 50?

Kate dreamed of a happy marriage, a house full of children and a fulfilling teaching career. But after twenty-five years of married life and about to hit the big 5-0, it's clear that her dreams haven't quite come true. Then her husband leaves her for his golf partner, forcing Kate to take stock of what has become of her life.

Luckily, new friendship comes her way in the form of three feisty older women who take Kate under their wings, plus a new flame (could it be more . . .?) sparks with local divorced dad, Milo. As her big birthday approaches, Kate's zest for life begins to return.

But opening herself up means making herself vulnerable to being hurt all over again . . .

As she turns 50, will Kate be brave enough to find happiness, and grab hold of it with both hands?

For fans of Judy Leigh, Milly Johnson and Cathy Bramley.
