Discover the joy that awaits when you set yourself free...
Sasha is well and truly over it all: work (all-consuming), friendships (on the back burner), sex-life (non-existent).
Armed with good intentions to drink kale smoothies, try yoga and find solitude, she heads to the Devon resort she loved as a child. But it's off-season, the hotel is falling apart and she has to share the beach with a grumpy, stressed-out guy called Finn.
How can she commune with nature when he's sitting on a rock, watching her suspiciously? Especially when they don't agree on burnout cures. (Sasha: manifesting, wild swimming, secret Mars bars; Finn: drinking whisky.)
But when curious messages start appearing on the beach, Sasha and Finn are forced to begin talking – about everything. What's the mystery? Why are they both burned out? And what exactly is 'manifesting', anyway?
They might discover that they have more in common than they think. . .
