Welcome to Darling Island - a complete series of heartwarming feel-good, small town stories with romance, community and friendship set in a to-die for British seaside town perched just off the English south coast.
~~~
The funny, heart-breaking and uplifting new trilogy of novels in Polly Babbington’s Darling Island series.
It's time for us to get back to Darling Island where the local time is so very far from care.
Life for Jane Le Romancer is all sorts of small. She goes to work, sits in her office, talks to her laptop, swirls around in a sea of numbers, goes home, talks to her laptop again, has dinner and the next day does the same thing again. Rinse and repeat.
With her only son away and her only friends scattered all over the place, she’s wondering what life is all about. She lives day to day via her online groups, cooking for one, pottering with her garden and receiving one too many visits from the postman.
One morning as she’s sitting in the office after a particularly interesting conversation with her laptop, an online post catches her eye.
House Swapper Wanted.
Come and stay in my gorgeous old mews house on Darling Island and enjoy all the coastal delights in the sweetest little house nestled by the sea. With its floating bridge, vintage Darling Street trams, delightful cosy pubs, gorgeous old fishing boats and secret cafes tucked away down little lanes, while away your days Darling style. Enjoy long walks by the sea, get to experience the blue waters of Darling Island’s bay and lap up the special flora and fauna all around.
Before Jane knows it, she’s swapping her three-storey house in a leafy London street for a tiny little place on an island shrouded in a hazy blue.
Will Jane’s life swap end up opening her eyes to everything that’s been missing in life or will she be wondering what in the world she’s done?
