Book description
Flora Stanza has sub-let her London life in a bid to join the family
antiques business. Her knowledge extends only to the information she
has crammed from daytime TV, but what she lacks in experience she
makes up for in blind enthusiasm. So she is more than a little put out
when she doesn't receive the warm country welcome she expected. Her
curt cousin Charles and his fiancée Annabelle are determined to send
Flora packing, and their offer to buy her out is tempting ... until a
strange warning makes her think twice.
Stuck with a cat about to burst with kittens, Flora has little
choice but to accept the offer to stay in an abandoned holiday cottage
miles from any neighbours, let alone a trendy winebar. And between
fighting off dinner invitations from the devastatingly handsome Henry,
and hiding her secret eco-friendly lodger William, Flora soon
discovers country life is far from dull as she sets about rebuilding
the crumbling business ...
Katie Fforde lives in Gloucestershire with her husband and some of
her three children. Recently her old hobbies of ironing and housework
have given way to singing, Flamenco dancing and husky racing. She claims
this keeps her fit.
