When you've lost what matters the most, there are only two ways to go: recover or lose it completely. "Hi. My name is Stella. I'm about to consume a boatload of alcohol. Want to join me?" Stella Carmichael can't believe her life with her husband is over. Though it wasn't always perfect, it was hers. Now, all she wants is to shut herself away in their too-empty house and turn her back on a world that seems to go on happily without her. But thanks to her interfering daughters, she's exiled to London. Instead of licking her wounds in solitude, Stella finds herself babysitting her rebellious teenage granddaughter, Mia, and struggling to make sense of her life thousands of miles from home. Navigating the challenges of repairing her family's fragile relationships is no easy task. Yet, while getting to know Mia, meeting new friends, and embarking on an unexpected romance with a charming college professor, Stella discovers that family is a gift and that living is something to be treasured. Join Stella on her emotional journey of grief, recovery, and hope in this uplifting, clean, and wholesome romance. Perfect for fans of second-chance love stories and midlife romance, "The London Affair" is an inspiring tale of love, family, and the magic of finding a second act in life. What readers are saying... "Susan Lute is a beautiful keeper of the human heart. She explores the soul and leaves the reader certain life is worth the journey." Wendy Warren, Nationally Bestselling and Two-Time RITA Recipient "One of my favorite types of books is about a woman's personal journey - to healing, knowledge, strength - with a romance along the way. And I just finished a lovely one: Susan Lute's "The London Affair." It also has the bonus of a wonderful grandma/granddaughter relationship, not to mention a secondary romance and a family's healing after a horrible loss. And a great setting. Yes, that's London, as in England. Sometimes it takes distance and something new to help people figure out their lives, and that's the case for heroine Stella." Susan Lyons Fox
