Lady Elizabeth Barrington-Elsworthy’s charred remains are discovered after her home, Barrington Hall, is burned to the ground. She was ‘the keeper’ of the infamous Barrington jewels and heirlooms and her untimely death means that their whereabouts are now unknown. It is believed they are hidden somewhere on the estate. The estate is closed. Years pass and then Cavendish House, a palatial building, now stands where Barrington Hall once stood.The property is now divided into fourteen apartments. Cherishé Love lives in apartment 4. She discovers a book, ‘The History of Barrington Hall’, that references the missing heirlooms and also that a substantial reward is being offered by Lord Henry Barrington-Elsworthy if they are found. Cherishé and her best friend Sonia are determined to seek out the treasure but they are not alone - others are also keen to look for them.So begins an hilarious journey where lies, deceit, betrayal and lust all have their part to play.
Cherishé Love is a storyteller. She loves and lives life to the fullest. To her, every minute is an adventure, and her claim to fame is that when she was born, her parents, ‘the Loves,’ couldn’t agree upon a name for her until, that is, they purchased a cushion for their summer house and there, embroidered upon the material was—Cherishé. Enough said.

What a fantastic read,
I took this on a 2 week holiday and started it on the flight.
Such a page turner, I finished it within two days of my break!
Hilariously funny in places and you are transported by the author into living that apartment life!
Thoroughly entertaining and I fully recommend.
Bring on the sequel.

‘14 Apartments’
Wish I could read this book all over again.
Although I’d never heard of this author. The cover of this book, and plot immediately grabbed my attention. Having been surrounded by interruptions, I took myself and ‘14 Apartments’ to a quiet lounge in a nearby hotel and found myself lost in one of the best, most ingenious, cleverly written books I’ve read for a long time.
Highly recommend!

I have just finished reading 14 Apartments by Cherish Love and wanted to say how much I enjoyed it.
It was fast-paced, full of unexpected surprises and twists with a cliffhanger for an ending. Having lived in an apartment myself, I really enjoyed the focus on different residents …so true to life?!
Thinking forward I think it would be good material for a mini TV series.

This was a great read which kept the pages turning. Humorous with plenty of twists and turns in the plot, she has written a great novel and can't wait for the sequel.

I really enjoyed reading this book. It was super exciting to read because it was full of twists. Great piece of adult comedy. Looking forward to sequel!

Having lived in an apartment (No 6 of 14) this book certainly brings out the range of occupants that you can get in such a situation. The story maintains the reader’s interest throughout and builds to a conclusion that is surprising and leaves the reader hoping for a sequel.
