Polly Potter is surviving, not thriving. She used to love her job – until her mentor died and her new boss decided to make her life hell. She used to love her partner Chris – until he cheated on her, and now she can't forget. The only place where her life is working is on the pages of the novel she is writing – there she can create a feistier, bolder, more successful version of herself – as the ­fictional Sabrina Anderson.

But what if it was possible to start over again? To leave everything behind, forget all that went before, and live the life you'd always dreamed of?

After a set of unforeseen circumstances, Polly ends up believing she really IS Sabrina, living at the heart of a noisy Italian family restaurant by the sea. Run by Teddy, the son of her new landlady Marielle, it's a much-loved place, facing threat of closure as a rival restaurant moves in next door. Sabrina can't remember her life as Polly, but she knows she is living a different life from the one she used to have.

But what if this new life could belong to her after all?

A Sunday Times bestseller, she is one of the Top 10 Female Fiction authors in the UK, and has sold millions of copies of her books sold across the world. Same Time Next Week is her twenty-second novel.

Milly's writing highlights the importance of community spirit and the magic of kindness. Her books inspire and uplift but she packs a punch and never shies away from the hard realities of life and the complexities of relationships in her stories. Her books champion women, their strength and resilience, and celebrate love, friendship and the possibility and joy of second chances and renaissances. She writes stories about ordinary women and the extraordinary things that happen in their ordinary lives. 'A delicious warm hug of a book containing wonderful characters you can empathise and fall in love with, plus several baddies to add tension to the mix. The storytelling is deft, the humour is brilliant and despite the many setbacks, we know that love will eventually win through' Jill Mansell



'They say laughter is the best medicine and Milly delivers that in bucket-loads - but beneath the laughter is an empowering story of a woman who gets to write - and live - her own happy ending, and it's one that will have you cheering from the side-lines.
