Today is publication day for The Gift of Cockleberry Bay, the final part in @nicolamay1's bestselling trilogy. The Cockleberry Bay books are a publishing phenomenon. If you don't know about them, we've put together a thread to introduce the series

The Corner Shop in Cockleberry Bay is the story of Rosa, a rough-around-the-edges Londoner who is left a mystery legacy: a derelict shop in a beautiful Devon village. Not allowed to sell it, she moves to the seaside to run the place â with various adventures along the way (2/10)
To say that readers loved it doesn't say the half of it. For a month of last year, Corner Shop was the UK's bestselling Kindle book, across all genres. It was Amazon's second top-selling ebook of 2019, beaten only by @amateuradam's blockbusting This Is Going to Hurt (3/10)
What made this achievement all the more remarkable was that The Corner Shop in Cockleberry Bay was self-published. Here's how the Daily Mail wrote up @nicolamay1's extraordinary story (4/10) https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-7380165/Chick-lit-author-tops-Amazon-charts-self-published-books-inspired-heartbreak.html
At the beginning of last year, we welcomed @nicolamay1 to Lightning Books, and we now publish the paperback versions of the Cockleberry series (the first was quickly followed by a sequel, Meet Me in Cockleberry Bay, which also won rave reviews) (5/10) http://eye-books.com/books/meet-me-in-cockleberry-bay
And the final part is out today
