Synopsis
The Only Way is Up by Carole Matthews
Lily and Laurence
Lamont-Jones had it all: lavish holidays in exotic locations, a top
private school for their two children and a beautiful home in the
Buckinghamshire countryside. Then Laurence loses his job, and their
house and all their belongings are repossessed. With nowhere else to
go, the family move into a flea-ridden council house on a notoriously
rough estate and start to pick up the pieces of their shattered lives.
But will Lily's dream of returning to a world of luxury ever come true
-- or have her priorities changed? For with the help of new friends, a
little luck and a lot of determination she's about to learn what really
matters.
About the Author
|
Carole Matthews is the Sunday Times bestselling author of 18 novels. Her unique sense of humour has won her legions of fans and critical acclaim all over the world. Her books have been translated into twenty languages and sold to Hollywood.
Born in St Helens, Merseyside, Carole began writing after she entered a short story competition in Writing Magazine and won a thousand pounds. Then – to her and everyone else’s amazement – she spent the money, not on shoes and handbags, but on a writing course. The tutor on the course liked what she was writing and recommended an agent who took her on straight away. She got her first book deal, for Let’s Meet on Platform 8, a week later.
Carole lives with her partner, Kevin, near in Milton Keynes.
