Summary

Welcome to Willoughby Close...a charming cluster of cozy cottages, each with a story to tell and a happy ending to deliver....

After her husband unexpectedly dies, Ava moves to Willoughby Close, trying to keep her chin up and to herself as she’s always done - not answering questions, not making friends, and not seeing much of a future. Her marriage was far from perfect, but it offered her a much-needed security that has now been ripped away. She’s not sure what to do now that she’s 35, widowed, penniless...and unexpectedly pregnant with her late husband’s child.

Jace Tucker is the over-the-top, sexy caretaker of Willoughby Manor, and he can see beneath Ava’s glamour-girl act to the hurt she’s been hiding for so long. She has secrets for a reason - and so does he. The last thing she needs right now is a fling with a man who hides a past as regrettable as her own.

But with a baby to think about and neighbors determined to be her friends, Ava finds herself starting to change and even more alarmingly, beginning to hope. Can Willoughby Close work its everyday magic on a woman like her? And when the past comes calling for both her and Jace, will they have to answer for their previous mistakes?

Enjoyable

I love this series, even if it’s a strange view of a Cotswold village. A pity about the awful narrator

Continuation of Willoughby Close Residents

Enjoyed the narrative of this book better than the previous one, as the characters dialogue seemed greater the descriptive narrative spoken by the story teller

I know the author is from the US but….

She could have researched her locale more accurately, not least around the mechanics of ante natal care in the U.K.

A book to sink into

Loving this series of books but I do think it would benefit from a British narrator reading it.
All the characters have cut glass accents and a lot of words are mis- pronounced.
Its a bit off putting!
