Sunshine After the Rain: a feel good, laugh-out-loud romance. Daisy James

       A summer that changes everything …

      Frazzled workaholic Evie Johnson has finally had enough! When she’s blamed for a publicity disaster at the art gallery she loves, she decides to flee the bright lights of London for the sun-drenched shores of Corfu and turn her life upside down.

      Under the shade of the olive trees, she picks up her dusty paintbrushes and begins to chase the dreams she had put aside for so long. But she never expected to bump into drop-dead-gorgeous Sam Bradbury – and certainly not whilst wrapped only in a towel!

      A summer fling is the last thing Evie wanted but a few stolen kisses under the stars might just begin to change her mind …

       The new delightfully uplifting beach read from Daisy James. Perfect for fans of Mandy Baggot, Christie Barlow and Zara Stoneley.

      DAISY JAMES is a Yorkshire girl transplanted to the north-east of England. She loves writing stories with strong heroines and swift-flowing plotlines. She has written four novels, The Runaway Bridesmaid, If the Dress Fits, When Only Cupcakes Will Do, and There’s Something about Cornwall, all contemporary romances with a dash of humour. When not scribbling away in her peppermint-and-green summerhouse (garden shed), she spends her time sifting flour and sprinkling sugar and edible glitter. She loves gossiping with friends over a glass of something pink and fizzy or indulging in a spot of afternoon tea – china plates and teacups are a must!

      Daisy would love to hear from readers via her Facebook page or you can follow her on Twitter @daisyjamesbooks.

      To Carol Coulson, Hilary Hicks, Jane Sharples, and Margaret King for their unswerving love and support, not to mention the wonderful indulgence of regular afternoon teas.

      To everyone who craves a little Sunshine After the Rain.
