THE TOP 10 BESTSELLER

'An emotional but uplifting page turner. The Secret to Happiness is a beautiful story of friendship and love' Fay Keenan

Everyone deserves a chance at happiness...

Danniella is running from her past, so when she arrives at the beautiful seaside resort of Whitsborough Bay, the last thing on her mind is making friends. After all, they might find out her secrets…

Alison is fun, caring and doesn't take herself too seriously. But beneath the front, she is a lost soul, stuck in a terrible relationship, with no family to support her. All she really needs is a friend.

Karen's romance has taken a back seat to her fitness business. But she doesn’t want to give up on love quite yet. If only those mysterious texts would stop coming through…

When the women meet at their local bootcamp, a deep friendship blossoms. And soon they realise that the secret to happiness is where they least expected to find it…

An uplifting story of friendship and finding the strength to come to terms with the past, from million-copy bestseller Jessica Redland.

Found the Secret

Took a little to get into it, and to realise the story was about 3 women, but really enjoyed it.

Very uplifting

I feel very inspired to live every day like it is my last. It took me a while to realise that this story was about three amazing strong characters,
but once I got there it was fabulous.
