Cosy, uplifting, but still "literary" novel to read in the evenings?

^^ Just that. I'd like a novel to read in the evenings after work, but as of late seem to have been drawn towards dark-ish stuff, or at least novels with heavy themes. I'd like something a bit more relaxing, not trash nor chicklit/YAetc., but still on substance. Recommendations welcome!

How about a classic? Mill on the Floss….

Seven Sisters series - Lucinda Riley

Books by Rhys Bowen

(Both these authors include romance in their stories, but they’re meatier than the Medredith moves to Cornwall to set up a cupcake shop and to get over cheating ex Hugo, but then meets confirmed batchelor farmer, Tristan…).
