Madeleine Wickham "A Desirable Residence"

Madeleine Wickham also writes under the name Sophie Kinsella. I did a bit of a thought summary on this which you can read here if you are interested.

"A Desirable Romance" is a story of peoples lives which begin individually and end up tangled in one big messy ball, not that all the characters are aware of this! Liz and Jonathan Chambers leave their family home, with the intention of selling it, along with their daughter Alice in pursuit of of a dream. Unsurprisingly, the dream doesn't go according to plan and in comes Marcus to the rescue. Marcus finds them tenants whom Alice goes on to befriend. But is Marcus trying to befriend Liz? More twists and turns and crossed relationships makes this a very readable book without it being too in-depth or too complicated a read.
