Debut 2019: Jenni Keer’s THE HOPES OF LUCY BAKER is out now!


Today, we would like you to join us in congratulating Jenni Keer whose debut novel is now available as an eBook! Published by Avon, here’s the synopsis for THE HOPES AND DREAMS OF LUCY BAKER

Meet Lucy, aged 25, and Brenda, aged 79. Neighbours, and unlikely friends.

Lucy Baker is not your usual 25-year-old. She is more at home reading and knitting in her cluttered little flat than going out partying and socialising.

79-year-old Brenda is full of wise and wonderful advice, but when she’s diagnosed with dementia her life begins to change. Before her memories slip away for ever, Brenda is desperate to fulfil one last wish to see Lucy happy.

Gifting Lucy the locket that helped Brenda find her own true love, she hopes to push her reticent neighbour in the right direction. But is Lucy Baker ready for the opportunities and heartbreaks of the real world? It’s about time she put her knitting needles aside and found out.

The Hopes and Dreams of Lucy Baker will be the most charming, heart-warming and feel-good novel you will read this year, perfect for fans of Ruth Hogan and Gail Honeyman.

The novel has already been racking up multiple glowing reviews via NetGalley. The print edition of the novel is due to be published in March 2019.
