Where The Light Gets In: The Sunday Times bestseller | Lucy Dillon
3 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
***THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER*** You know those cracks in your heart, Lorna, where things didnt work out, but you picked yourself up and carried on? Thats where the fear gets out. And where the light gets in. It was Betty, defiant to the end, who sent Lorna back to Longhampton. If Lornas learned one thing from Betty its that courage is something you paint on like red lipstick, even when youre panicking inside. And right now, with the keys to the towns gallery in her hand, Lorna feels about as courageous as Bettys anxious little dachshund, trembling beside her. Lornas come home to Longhampton to fulfil a long-held dream, but she knows, deep down, there are ghosts she needs to lay to rest first. This is where her tight-knit family shattered into silent pieces. Its where her unspoken fears about herself took root and where her own secret, complicated love began. Its not exactly a fresh start. But as Lorna and the little dog tentatively open their cracked hearts to old friends and new ones, facing hard truths and fresh promises, something surprisingly beautiful begins to grow around the gallery, something so inspirational even Lorna couldnt have predicted the light it lets into her world . . . An inspiring, life-enhancing novel that will make you see your life afresh . . . Fans of Jojo Moyes, Lucy Diamond and Veronica Henry will love it.

#Roll100 for July is Where the Light gets in.

Lucy Dillon is one of my favourite authors for a heartfelt read, especially since there is always a minimum of 1 dog 🐕

'.. Dad crumbled before their bewildered eyes; with one half of himself gone, he was so obviously a lover with a broken heart it was impossible to see him as their gentle, bumbling dad any more.

He was a man, a man they couldn't heal. A stranger neither she nor Jess could burden with their own grief.'

Never before has a passage in a book resonated so much with me and how my father is in life.. 😔
