Book synopsis

From the Coming Back to Cornwall series, this is Sophie's story...

Sophie thought she had time to figure everything out. Now she's not so sure.

Back home and starting over after losing her job, she finds herself caught between the life she's supposed to want and the one she's not even sure exists yet. Her boyfriend Harry is ready for the next step - something steady, something permanent - but Sophie can't ignore the nagging feeling that she's not ready to settle down.

While her friends race ahead with careers, mortgages, and carefully planned futures, Sophie feels stuck in limbo. As questions about her fractured family resurface - her mum's true motivations, her dad's long-ago departure - not to mention best friend Amber's secret romance, Sophie begins to realise just how much she doesn't know, about them or herself.

With her life split between Devon and Cornwall, and a patchwork family so that nowhere has ever quite felt like home, Sophie is forced to confront the hardest question of all: where does she truly belong?

Because growing up isn't about having all the answers - it's about finding the courage to choose your own path.

Perfect for existing fans of the Coming Back to Cornwall series and equally welcoming to new readers, this heartfelt story can be enjoyed whether you're returning to Cornwall or discovering it for the very first time.
