Finding Hope on the Little Swedish Island: A coastal romance with plenty of small-town charm

Single mother Emelie swaps city bustle for the peaceful rhythms of Sardinön, a tiny Swedish island where life is never quite as quiet as it seems. Managing the community centre, juggling three spirited daughters, and nurturing a secret romance with Andreas, the local gardener, Emelie quickly discovers that Sardinön is home to a delightfully quirky cast of characters.

From yoga-loving potters and tango-dancing widows to saw-playing musicians and a tap-dancing council inspector, the island buzzes with charm. But when a precious family heirloom mysteriously disappears, suspicions flare in the tight-knit village, and Emelie must rely on friendship, forgiveness, and a sprinkle of island magic to mend wounds and uncover the truth.

Perfect for fans of small-town romance and feel-good women’s fiction, "Finding Hope on the Little Swedish Island" is a heartwarming tale celebrating unconventional, found families and the enduring spirit of community - even on the smallest island.

Annika and Jessika Devert are Swedish sisters and co-authors known for their heartwarming, light-hearted stories set on small Swedish islands. Together, they have written popular series that explore themes of family, friendship, and new beginnings, capturing the charm and magic of coastal life.
