When you’re thirty, there’s still time to dream and reinvent yourself wherever you are.
Ben walks away from suffocating family expectations and a secure career as a lawyer to pursue a life he has yet to imagine. Between washing dishes and crafting fantasy stories inspired by his niece and nephews, a chance encounter with Freya, once glimpsed ten years ago, leads to wild dreams of perfect love.
Freya is at a crossroads, untangling herself from a toxic relationship, while rediscovering her passion for nature, and her own creative energy. Aquinas, her ineffectual, bumbling housemate, must finally conquer his fears in order to transform a piece of troubled land into a thriving community park.
United by a vision of creating something meaningful, the trio confronts personal demons, financial challenges and the weight of their own aspirations. Together they find strength in community, resilience in the face of disappointments, beauty in second chances, and the healing power of friendship.
“Everyone who has navigated the growing pains of early adulthood – with its career and relationship ups and downs – will recognise and empathise with the issues in this warmly engaging novel where impetuous decisions, unexpected connections, unsuitable relationships, the push and pull of family histories are interwoven into a satisfying narrative exploring new possibilities.”
