A sweet and wholesome romance about love, friendship and finding a way to move on when you just want to stay in the past.
It’s only a list. So why does her whole world fall apart when it suddenly disappears?
Rosie Nash’s job as a daytime television show runner keeps her busy. Every second counts in the land of live TV and that’s just looking after her colleagues… and their endless demands. Rosie doesn’t mind, she loves life on the go and being away from the spotlight suits her fine. Besides, can you imagine if anyone discovered who she really was? Exactly, neither can she.
It’s all okay because she has her very own haven, The Pink Coffee Shop, which she visits after every show. It’s run by her lifelong friends, Wanda and Millie. And it gives her just the sanctuary she needs. Plus, she has her list which she carries with her wherever she goes because… well, that’s for Rosie to know.
But life begins to unravel when Rosie loses her list. Then, when she finds a stranger sitting in her seat at The Pink Coffee Shop, her well-ordered life is never the same again.
The Pink Coffee Shop is a clean and wholesome romance in The Next Chapter Collection, celebrating quiet resilience, unexpected connection and the gentle strength it takes to let go and begin again.

Ellie Barker is a television journalist, author and host of The Next Chapter podcast. Ellie started as a runner in TV just like Rosie in The Pink Coffee Shop. Does the camera really lie? With more than 25 years in the industry, Ellie knows. When she's not being dazzled by those TV lights, Ellie writes contemporary romance novels or Fiction Therapy as she calls it.The Pink Coffee Shop, The Juggle and The Secrets of the Coffee Club are all set in the fictitious Cherry Blossom Park in Bristol—the city where Ellie lives with her journalist husband, sons and dog, Cookie. Her latest novel Do We Really Have to Do This? is the first in a new series set in the fictitious Strawberry Village, also in Bristol, with the next one due in 2024. When Ellie's not holding a microphone or collecting socks, she loves to write warm, uplifting fiction with lots of love and hope. All her books feature a therapist (hence the Fiction Therapy) based on her lifelong fascination with mental health. And be warned: after years of reporting on some of the not-so-fair parts of life, only happy endings are allowed.
Ellie would love to hear from you on her website—where you can read the real-life story behind her books.
