In 2013, actress, television personality, and Sunday Times best-selling author Lynda Bellingham was diagnosed with cancer. Until now, Lynda hasn't spoken publicly about her illness - she has felt strongly that everyone's experience of cancer is so different, and she wanted to keep what she has been going through personal to her while she came to terms with her life now. But in this memoir, Lynda talks with beautiful poignancy about her life since her diagnosis, her family, and how together they came to terms with a future they hadn't planned.

In the summer of '82, Sally Thomas begins her first season as an Assistant Stage Manager at the beautiful theatre in Crewe.

And when her best friend Jeremy falls suddenly and dangerous in love, Sally has to grow up - fast.
