About this listen
From the author of The Littlest Library—a heartwarming novel about a widowed children’s book author who moves into a cottage in the English countryside and finds herself face-to-face with the handsome and brooding blacksmith who lives next door.
In her books she can write “happily ever after”— but real life? That’s another matter…
For children’s book author Imogen, an idyllic life in the English countryside seems like the perfect fit for her and her husband. But when tragedy strikes, Imogen is left widowed, and finds herself moving into Storybook Cottage alone with only her monstrously narcissistic cat for company.
After discovering she is pregnant, Imogen grows determined to embrace a new start in Middlemass, with its duckpond, cricket matches and village fêtes. The only thing Imogen can’t seem to shake is her neighbor—a brooding, artisan blacksmith named Gabriel—who she can’t quite decide is friend or foe. That is until she realizes, thanks to an arcane clause in her deeds, that Gabriel— not just an artist, but lord of the local manor house— has the power to take her home and leave her completely broke.
Devastatingly, he seems keen to do exactly that. Yet, Imogen finds herself drawn to him nonetheless. And in her darkest hour, Gabriel may just be the bright spot to save Imogen in more ways than one.

Good cute country story - needs better wrapping!
Overall, this book is very lovely, but it wraps up with quite a few loose ends. I don’t want to give spoilers so I’ll give just this example, her cat, the focus of the whole first half of the book, the one giving her life in grief, a purpose and a job just gets left behind on a number of occasions when she forgets he exists? It doesn’t make any sense. He isn’t referenced in the end either as they set up happily ever after. It really is a sweet book but yeah, some inconsistencies I guess.

Enjoyable but different Middlemas
I enjoyed this story; the characters, the performance, the happy ending… it won’t blow your socks off but it’s nice easy read. What I do not understand one bit is why all the characters from earlier books set in the same village feature none of the characters already established whatsoever - ie the shop owner and school teachers are completely different… a shame as these earlier characters would have been great to catch up with.
