Second chances never go out of style . . .The heartwarming and romantic new novel from Annie Darling - perfect…
for fans of Cressida McLaughlin and Holly Hepburn!The Vintage Dress Shop, in London's Primrose Hill, is a treasure trove of beautiful, preloved clothes, just waiting for a second chance to be loved again... Sophy Stevens is moving to Australia. Turning thirty has found her unexpectedly out of a job, out of a relationship, and just in need of Something Different - and Australia, where she can finally meet her grandparents and surprise them on their wedding anniversary, looks like the perfect answer . . . if she can save up the money for the plane ticket. So when her feckless, absent dad Johnno offers her a job at his vintage clothes shop in Primrose Hill, she can't turn it down. It'll only be for a few months, after all. But the Vintage Dress Shop turns out to be a treasure trove of gorgeous preloved clothes, from a 1930s cocktail gown to a never-worn 50s wedding dress, and despite the disapproval of the snooty manager, Phoebe, Sophy starts to fall in love with vintage fashion. And then there's Charles Radley, the debonair gemstone specialist with exquisite tailoring, cheekbones sharp enough to cut glass, and enough charm to throw Sophy's plans wildly off course. . .(P)2023 Hodder & Stoughton LimitedLottie's School of Dance
