'So charming, so sweet and so lovely' MARIAN KEYES
Leena is too young to feel stuck.
Eileen is too old to start over.
Maybe it's time for The Switch...
Ordered to take a two-month sabbatical after blowing a big presentation at work, Leena escapes to her grandmother Eileen's house for some overdue rest. Newly single and about to turn eighty, Eileen would like a second chance at love. But her tiny Yorkshire village doesn't offer many eligible gentlemen.
So Leena proposes a solution: a two-month swap. Eileen can live in London and look for love, and Leena will look after everything in rural Yorkshire.
But with a rabble of unruly OAPs to contend with, as well as the annoyingly perfect - and distractingly handsome - local schoolteacher, Leena learns that switching lives isn't straightforward. Back in London, Eileen is a huge hit with her new neighbours, and with the online dating scene.
But is her perfect match nearer to home than she first thought?

The Switch
A charming sweet book that kept me interested till the end. All the quirky characters and the outstanding performance I must say by the grandmother … just goes to show that old folk can have just as much fun as the young folk.
The Switch is simply the best!
Best book I’ve read in a long time. Beautiful story that leaves you laughing, crying, cheering and understanding life just a little bit more. Brilliant.
Excellent
At first I wasn’t sure, the blurb didn’t grab me, but the reviews were good. So glad I went ahead and read this story. I wasn’t expecting to enjoy the story or connect with the characters but I did. Fully recommend.
