The Perfectly Simple Complicated Life of Maggie Halloran

Maggie Halloran's life is finally perfect. For recently retired Maggie Halloran, life in her renovated two-bedroom St Ives fisherman's cottage is picture-perfect. With her daughter in London and her mother in Penzance, Maggie is free to enjoy the odd sleepover with her boyfriend, Nigel, visit galleries, or do her beloved sudoku. When Maggie's reserved mother falls giddily in love and announces her forthcoming wedding, Maggie takes it in her stride. But then Maggie's daughter, Alice, announces she's pregnant and needs somewhere to live – along with her new puppy. Alice and Maggie have never been close, plus Nigel is allergic to dogs, but blood is thicker than your average Saturday night sleepover. Suddenly Maggie is humouring her demanding daughter, fielding visits from her nostalgic ex-husband, and accommodating Alice's baby daddy. Then Maggie's mother arrives on the doorstep in tears, because she's left her new husband.​With builder Mitch converting the loft, Maggie's three-level terrace is now home to three generations – soon to be four. Her quiet, drama-free life is gone. But does she want it back?
