When your world is turned upside down, home is where the heart is…
Plucked from nowhere and thrust into the limelight, 21-year-old Angelia MacAuley never expected her passion for music to take her all over the world.
Fast forward 10 years, and after successfully touring the globe with the man she thinks she loves but can’t have, a shocking diagnosis forces her to rethink the glamorous life she loves and the future of those around her.
Needing to step back and rest, Angelia and her faithful companion Scrappy return to her childhood home on the Isle of Skye and the warm and welcome embrace of her parents.
With her latest property investment in the picturesque village of Glentorrin on Skye, Angelia throws herself into restoring a forgotten shop full of potential—but will she find time to heal and discover love too?
A vicar, a rock drummer, and a classical musician compete for her attention—perhaps it’s time for a fresh start in every part of her life.
About The Author
My Review
This is about Angelia MacAuley, a global performer whose glittering career and complicated love life are brought to a sudden halt by a life-changing diagnosis, sending her back to the peaceful Isle of Skye to rediscover herself. In this book, the island becomes more than a setting, it is a sanctuary where healing, reflection, and gentle new beginnings unfold. Angelia returns to her childhood home with her loyal dog Scrappy, seeking rest but slowly finding purpose in unexpected places. Restoring a forgotten shop in Glentorrin becomes her anchor, allowing her to rebuild her identity beyond fame and pressure. The novel beautifully blends emotional depth with light, uplifting moments as she reconnects with family, community, and herself. Along the way, she encounters a trio of potential love interests—a vicar, a rock drummer, and a classical musician—each representing different paths her future could take, though the heart of the story remains her personal growth. The romance is subtle, unfolding alongside themes of self-acceptance and rediscovery rather than dominating the narrative. MacAuley’s journey feels tender and authentic, capturing the quiet courage it takes to slow down and choose a life rooted in peace, connection, and emotional honesty and hope.
