A heartwarming novel by Lucy Diamond, full of her trademark combination of humour and friendship.
Summer is here, and down in Cornwall, Lorna's cottages are fully booked. The sun loungers are lined up beside the swimming pool, the sky is blue, and a new set of arrivals are on their way.
Em's planned the perfect break with her teenagers plus her new boyfriend, George. but now his difficult six-year-old is coming too. Will their romance survive the realities of parenthood?
Maggie's hoping a seaside holiday will bring her and her daughter closer together, but when her ex makes a surprise reappearance, it changes everything. Can she trust the man who broke her heart?
Olivia has escaped the domestic grind, only for the past to catch up with her. Maybe the time has come to confess all -if she can find the courage.
Meanwhile, the teenagers are running wild and love is in the air. With friendship, heartache, and secrets in the mix, will this holiday turn out to be a scorcher - or simply too hot to handle?
An Almost Perfect Holiday is a warm and witty story of friendship, family, and hope, by Sunday Times bestseller Lucy Diamond.

Andrea P, Reviewer
An Almost Perfect Holiday by Lucy Diamond is a charming novel that will certainly fit the bill if you are looking for a light and satisfying holiday read. I had not previously read any of Ms Diamond's work, but I will definitely keep an eye out for her books in future.
Lorna's cottages on the Cornish seaside are filling up for the summer season. Among the new crop of visitors are three women who believe that the holiday will provide the perfect escape. Em and Maggie hope that the break will provide an opportunity to strengthen bonds with their teenage children, while Olivia soon discovers that you can never outrun the past. Each of the women will come to realize that while a holiday might hold the promise of a temporary respite, you can never truly escape the bonds of family, nor the weight of secrets.
This is a cosy, heartfelt read that will provide a welcome escape on any day.
Many thanks to NetGalley and Publishers Group Canada for this ARC.
