House that Alice Built

First in the romantic series about a prudent woman who throws sensibility to the wind to find herself in the sunny climes of Portugal. Alice Dorothy Matthews is sensible. While her best friend Kathy is living it up in Portugal and her insufferable ex Adam is traveling the world, Alice is working hard to pay for the beloved London house she has put her heart and soul into renovating. But then a postcard from Buenos Aires turns Alice's life upside down.

One very unsensible decision later and she is in Cascais, Portugal.

Thus begins her lesson in going with the flow; a lesson that sees her cat-sitting, paddle boarding, dancing on top of bars and rediscovering her artistic talents. But perhaps the most important part of the lesson for Alice is that you don't always need a house to be at home.
