The Way We Were by Marcia Willett

Willett writes very much like Rosamund Pilcher and Maeve Binchy. I usually enjoy the characters and have a strong craving for a cup of tea while I read! This story moves back and forth between the 1970's and 2004. It involves a young pregnant Tiggy (that's not a thing - that's her name!) whose fiance has died. She travels to stay with her best friend Julia (who has a husband and children). Things don't go smoothly and when the story is in the present we are teased with all sorts of secrets that go back to the '70's. It's an easy read, it's about friends and it takes place on the Cornwall moors - those are three good reasons to read it!
