Sometimes the best chapters of our lives begin after we think the story is over.

When Ana Mitchell inherits her eccentric Aunt Clara's beach house, it comes with two conditions: move to the sleepy coastal town of Warinyah Bay for a year, and take over running the Aspiring Authors Book Club. With an unhappy teenager, a struggling bank balance, and an ex-husband who won't let go, starting over feels overwhelming. But what choice does she have?

Trent Perfect has spent twenty years building a quiet, predictable life running the town's bookstore. The last thing he needs is Ana -- his high school debate partner and first crush -- disrupting his carefully maintained routine. Especially when she's supposed to help him to manage the book club, full of wannabe writers who haven't published a word, and comes with kids who remind him of his own lonely childhood.

As Ana tries to honour her aunt's legacy while rebuilding her life, she discovers that Clara's final gift might be more than just a house -- it could be a second chance at everything she's ever wanted. But with her ex-husband promising to change and Trent keeping his distance, Ana must decide: is it braver to protect your heart, or to risk it all again for a chance at real happiness?

A warm, witty novel about family, friendship, and finding the courage to write your own story, even when life keeps trying to edit the ending.

Perfect for fans of Debbie Macomber and Emily Henry, THE ASPIRING AUTHORS BOOK CLUB reminds us that sometimes the best chapters of our lives begin after we think the story is over.
