A feel-good novel in which roommates who have nothing in common will help solve each other’s problems.

At seventy-three, Lucette is suffocating in her daily life as a housewife. Convinced that it’s not too late to change her life, she leaves her rich husband. Divorced and nearly penniless, the eccentric septuagenarian dreams of reliving her twenties. She then invests her savings in a large house and offers the rooms for rent.

In this unusual living situation, the destinies of Lucette and her roommates will intersect. Karine, the recently fired 40-year-old, Morgane, the rebellious tattoo artist, Nicolas, the biology student with asperger’s syndrome, and Serge, the retired writer.

Five atypical characters who all have in common a deep wound they keep hidden. What if to heal, all they have to do is support one another?

Juliette Sachs lives in the Paris area, but remains very attached to Brittany where her maternal family is from. After studying law, she worked as a lawyer in a large company for several years before moving to the field of innovation as a project manager.

She is the author of cosy mysteries, romantic comedies and feel-good novels.
