Summary
A sweeping family drama of old secrets and new beginnings…
‘A satisfying treat’ Adele Parks, Platinum
‘A compelling family drama’ Sarah Morgan
‘Wise and warm with plenty of twists and turns’ Rachel Hore
‘Emotional and uplifting’ Veronica Henry
‘Captivating and vivid’ Miranda Dickinson
Even happy families have their secrets…
Anchor House is the coastal home where Naomi and her husband raised their two girls. Now widowed, Naomi is building a new life alone, but the arrival of Ellis next door is bringing some long-awaited fun back too.
Naomi’s daughters are very different: Martha is determined and driven like her father, while Willow is a free spirit. The three women have always been close, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have secrets of their own. There are things Naomi has kept from her girls, like the fact that her marriage to their father wasn’t quite what it seemed…
The Sunday Times bestselling author Erica James returns with this gloriously compelling tale of mothers and daughters, secrets and love.
‘A wonderfully compelling family drama that deftly touches upon some serious issues’ Sunday Express

Superb performance. Warm and engaging story
Juliet Stephenson read this book wonderfully. I thoroughly enjoyed this book, relatively gentle but with enough grit and plot line to draw you in. Well drawn characters and a very evocative setting.

Erica James at her very best.
I can give no greater praise of Mothers and Daughters than to say how sad I feel to have finished the story. Erica James has woven a wonderfully simple story of a widowed mother and her two adult daughters into a true family saga with all its ups and downs, set in the beautiful setting of a West Sussex village by the sea and I could have gone on reading for many more chapters.

A different Erica James
I’ve read all of Erica James books, this somehow felt like a different version of her. Nonetheless, once again a great book, well written and with many characters that you’ve met in life.
The only disappointment was that it ended, I loved it.

All loose end tied up quickly
Juliette Stevenson’s narration was superb- I did find Willow’s voice a bit irritating but I suspect I would find her a bit irritating if I actually met her.
Interesting story, mostly likeable characters- after several hours of build up it just finished neatly and tidily a bit too quickly.
