Three women in their 50s - one widowed, one divorced and one never married - meet when they join a choir. When they decide to combine their talents to restore a run down hotel on the Cornish coast and turn it in to a spa offering holiday courses, conflict is bound to result.

A treasure trove of fantastic recipes from the founder of Leith's School of Food and Wine and Great British Bake Off judge Prue Leith

The first instalment of an epic multi-generational family saga by award-winning restaurateur Prue Leith. A proud family. Snubbed by aristocratic neighbour Lord Frampton at a coming-of-age ball, Donald Oliver dreams of the day he'll have his vengeance. A wild daughter. Laura Oliver, beautiful and tempestuous, falls in love with Giovanni, an Italian ex-prisoner-of-war, now a humble cook. Disdaining her father's snobbishness - and his wrath - the couple flee to London. A desperate hope. Giovannio and Laura arrive to a city that has not yet re-woken after the traumas of war.
