Summary

Discover the bestselling Escape to the Lakes series from MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER Jessica Redland

Rosie feels like there's something missing in her life.

She loves her job as the manager of Willowdale Hall Riding Stables, caring for the horses and teaching children to ride, and she loves the home she shares with her mother in the beautiful Lake District. But she can't help wondering how her life might look if things had been different. What if her father had been around to help care for her mother? And what if she'd found someone special herself?

When Hubert Cranleigh - the owner of Willowdale Hall - is taken ill, his son Oliver steps into the breach. Brooding and distant, Rosie is furious when he claims not to know who she is. Especially when they have a history.

Rosie's life is about to be turned upside down, but with the New Year comes new opportunities. What Rosie feels is missing from her life might be closer than she thinks, and with more significant consequences than she could ever have imagined...

Take a breath of fresh air and escape to the Lake District with million-copy bestseller Jessica Redland, for an uplifting story of family, friendship and love.

You could picture yourself there!!!

I loved the story and the Narrator firstly. How the story flowed so easily, it's one of those audios that you don't want to end, even though you've got the 2nd one waiting in your library. Absolutely loved it. Thank you x

Absolutely....

brilliant storyline from start to nearly the end, because now I have to wait until the next book to come out of the series. The characters and antics within the book were lovely. The narrator was very good at using different voices for the characters.

Fuming! Need to know who “C” is!

Wow! Devouring this series. So hoping the next one isn’t ages away from being finished - it’s almost as awful as having to wait forever to find out if Nessa says yes to Smithy in Gavin and Stacey. What a cliffhanger. Absolutely fabulous book!

Enjoyable escapism

This was another enjoyable Jessica Redland. Annoying end though. It continues to puzzle me that the reading isn’t edited in the way the writing would be as there are always so many mispronounced words. At least she has stopped saying Kes-Wick. But eye-dell for idyll bugged me and Spandoo Ballet just made me laugh.
However, I love that JR links her stories and they are enjoyable escapism always with little twists and turns. Just wish the next one was out!
