Synopsis:

Ana is a successful writer. Her best-selling books make her readers dream (and sigh), with infallible ingredients: dreamy men, wonderful landscapes, motivating phrases and passionate love stories.

But her life is very different from the pages of her books, and Ana is tired of living it.

She lives in an old building in Lisbon. She works, fulfils all her duties and obligations and does not allow herself to have fun, because she carries in her heart a trauma from the past that does not allow her to be happy.

Her neighbours are an elderly couple with whom she has created a relationship of great complicity. They were her pillar when years ago she moved alone, with her young daughter, to that building, carrying a suitcase full of pain and uncertainty.

But her life is about to change. She has a book that she can’t finish; she meets a mysterious reader whose story intrigues her; the charming director of her publishing house doesn’t give up on winning her over and a new neighbour who, with a smile on his lips, music in his accent and natural friendliness, arouses her curiosity.

Fátima Lopes, the bestselling author, brings us a surprising novel that addresses themes such as loneliness, the time we dedicate to our elders, domestic violence, the impact of past traumas, hope and the meaning of life.

Is it time for Ana to free herself from the past,

step out of your comfort zone and allow yourself to be happy?

Or will it be too risky

to let love in?
