About the book
A poised and vivid story of a young woman finding her way back to herself for fans of Coco Mellors and Megan Nolan
'Beautifully observed, deeply humane' Marina Kemp, author of The Unwilding
'Unafraid to confront toxic power ... Stunning' Amy Beashel, author of Spilt Milk
Rhianne is not who she used to be, or who she wants to be either. Art school has shattered her confidence. So, she moves back to her rural family home in the West Country and dives into the high-pressure world of a hotel kitchen, where sharp knives and hot plates leave little time to think about what happened in London.
Her dad, Dominic, is relieved to have her close, while her step-mum, Melissa, treads clumsily but with compassion. But then there's Callum, the enigmatic chef with a controlled manner and an intense gaze. There's attraction, compulsion, and maybe even a little inspiration.
As Rhianne reconnects with her art, she starts to heal. But to truly move forward, Rhianne must find the courage to see herself – and those around her – in full colour for the first time.
'Subtly subversive, utterly memorable' Helen Mort
'Price reveals the deliberate diminishing of a partner, the dimming of their inner light…with tender care’ Observer
Readers LOVE The Orange Room
'I was swept away by the beautiful, subtle writing ... Her style reminds me of Sally Rooney'
‘I haven’t read anything like it'
'A sucker punch of a novel & beautifully done’
'Moving … I loved the rawness'
