Welcome to Rosie Hopkins" Sweetshop of Dreams
- Rosie Hopkins, city girl to the end, is about to face major upheaval. Her elderly aunt Lily, who lives slap bang in the middle of nowhere, is ill and so, taking a leave of absence from the bustling London hospital where she works, Rosie is putting her friends, her boyfriend and her entire life on hold to move to the depths of the Peak District to help. She"s fairly certain she won"t be able to get a decent cup of coffee, or Heat magazine - and she"s dreading it. Lilian Hopkins has run the village sweetshop all her life - through wartime and family feuds, observing as the village around her has grown and changed with the times. As she struggles with the idea that it might finally be time to sell up, she also wrestles with the secret history hidden behind the jars of beautifully coloured sweets. Will Rosie come round to the charms of the old sweetshop on the Northern road? Can Lilian come to terms with her past, and learn to let go?
