Women's Fiction
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…
