So when she lets out the big house in Liverpool with its enchanting garden where she grew up she decides to leave Colin and share the house with the other women who have come to live there.

But Diana suddenly finds there is no place for her in the only home she has ever known. Then there is Vanessa once a successful career woman now miserable and overweight who still can't get over the shock of an unexpected rejection. And finally Rachel barely fifteen with her baby daughter Poppy who some people seem determined to take away from her. As they while away the brilliant summer under the trees in the lovely garden of the big house friendships form that will last a lifetime. But it isn't all a bed of roses; bad things happen too - after all nothing lasts forever. This enchanting contemporary novel's warmth and quiet mystery shows once again that Maureen Lee is an exceptional storyteller.
