For Laura, it’s a wake-up call to heed the ticking of her biological clock. Sensible Jo finds herself throwing caution to the wind in a new relationship. Eve, who has been trying to ignore the worrying lump in her breast, feels helpless and out of control. And happy-go-lucky India is drawn to one of the victims of the accident, causing long-buried secrets to rise to the surface.
On a Beautiful Day is a novel about the startling and unexpected turns life can take. It’s about luck – good and bad – and about finding bravery and resilience when your world is in turmoil. Above all, it’s about friendship, togetherness and hope.
The House of New Beginnings
The House of New Beginnings
Anything could happen . . .
In an elegant Regency house near the Brighton seafront, three tenants have more in common than they know . . .
A shocking revelation has led Rosa to start over as a sous chef. The work is gruelling but it’s a distraction . . . until she comes up against the stroppy teenager next door who challenges her lifestyle choices. What if Rosa’s passion for food could lead her to more interesting places?
Having followed her childhood sweetheart down south, Georgie is busily carving out a new career in journalism. Throwing herself into the city’s delights is fun, but before she knows it she’s sliding headlong into all kinds of trouble . . .
Nursing a devastating loss, Charlotte just wants to keep her head down. But Margot, the glamorous older lady on the top floor, has other ideas. Like it or not, Charlotte must confront the outside world, and the possibilities it still holds.
As the women find each other, hope surfaces, friendships blossom and a whole new chapter unfolds for them all.

About the Author
Lucy Diamond writes about love, life, family and friendship, and new beginnings. From taking an evening class that kick-started her writing career to becoming a hospital radio host, Lucy has never been afraid to try something new, so it’s no coincidence that many of the characters in her novels have flashes of boldness where they take a chance and strike out on new ventures, just like Frankie in Something to Tell You.
Lucy has lived in Nottingham, Leeds, London, Oxford and Brighton. She now lives in Bath with her husband and three children.
