A sweet and wholesome romantic comedy set in Cherry Blossom Park about unexpected roles, unravelling secrets, and falling in love all over again—on and off the air.

Molly has a new job—the trouble is it's her husband's.

Molly
Molly loves life in her yoga leggings, not that she does any yoga. When she's not working part-time as a reluctant journalist—she's more of a 'stay home, eat cake and listen to self-help podcasts' kind of girl. Besides, she could never compete with her TV reporter husband Dan who is so talented and handsome, the whole newsroom wants to be like him.

She didn't mean to distract him, but the little slip he's just made live on air could cost him his career. Best he has some time away, says their boss, and the only person who can cover him is... Molly.

Dan
Dan's just lost his job to his wife and she's about to discover he's a great, big fake.

The Juggle is a clean and wholesome romance in The Next Chapter Collection, filled with laugh-out-loud twists, lovable chaos and the unexpected joy of discovering who you really are.

Praise for The Juggle:

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This book is full of imaginative colour, beauty, humour, kindness... as well as unexpected twists and turns.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I love the way this book has been written from both Dan and Molly's point of view.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was bereft when I finished this book! I read it as slowly as I could as I didn't want to reach the last page as I was enjoying it so much.
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Please could I live in Cherry Blossom Park? It has everything!
★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I loved this book. Devoured it in 2 days. So many twists and turns and fabulous characters.

About the Author

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 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 new series set in the fictitious Strawberry Village also in Bristol, the next one is 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 have a therapist in (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.
