Amanda Addison

Her architect husband Adi has been relocated to rural Norfolk, a far cry from theÂ ultra-urban life they know.

Chris had been her big love at art college and seeing him again is utterly confusing. Is she really so different from the impulsive student who once trawledÂ resale shops for vintage treasures? When a fire all but destroys Laura's collection of vintage clothes, she's heartbrokenâ€”and seriously lacking in outfits. But, salvaging what she can, Laura makes do and mends; sewing purses, bags, andÂ even dog leashes. Soon, she's inundated with orders. But Adi is becoming more and more distant, as ifÂ there'sÂ something he's not telling her. Can Laura make a stitch in time and pull her family back together again?
