Discover the emotional, uplifting book club pick from the top 50 bestselling author of A Single Act of Kindness, Samantha Tonge.Perfect for fans of Jojo Moyes, David Nicholls and Faith Hogan.

Alex would like to believe she's a woman who has it all. Or that's what she tells everyone, including herself. But this is far from true. Actually she's on the cusp of losing her home, her dream career as a writer is in tatters, her ex won't speak to her, and her mother's gone forever.

But then a chance meeting with a stranger named Hope gives her the opportunity of a lifetime, when Hope jokes that perhaps Alex should take over her job in a cafe while she goes travelling.

Just at that moment, it sounds like the answer to all her problems. So Alex persuades Hope to let her step into her shoes for a month. She brushes away Hope's attempts to explain about the cafe, instead demanding to know more about the owner Tom.

But she should have asked for more details. Because the 'Wrong Order Cafe' isn't like anywhere she's ever been before. And Alex's life is about to change forever...

A gorgeously uplifting story about memories, storytelling, love and friendship, about the journeys we take and the people we meet, what we remember and how there are some things we can never forget.
