Summary

One crumbling cottage. One broken heart. A chance to start over? When Annie returns to Thorndale, a village in the English countryside where she spent much of her childhood, she’s looking for a new start. All she wants to do is fix up the cottage her godmother left her, and fix up her broken heart.

When she clashes with local hero, Jon, Annie can't help but wonder if coming back to Thorndale was a mistake. The village has clearly changed, and the last thing she needs is more drama. But avoiding the distractingly handsome Jon is proving impossible, especially when Thorndale seems to be conspiring to throw them together...

Annie is looking for a fresh start with zero romance - but what if the only way to learn to trust again is to take a risk on love?

The perfect cosy romance for fans of Julie Houston, Victoria Walters and Trisha Ashley.

Suzanne lives in Lancashire with her family and loves to read. Amongst her favourite books are historical crime fiction and writers' biographies. Suzanne enjoys cooking, walking, especially in the Lake District, and developing and planting gardens. She is a member of the Romantic Novelists Association and the Society of Authors.

Good story

Initially hated the narrator but you get used to her. Good storey and could not put it down in the end

No intonation

I also like another reader only managed 15 minutes of this. The narrator uses no intonation and it starts to make your ears hurt after a short listen. I was even making shopping lists in my head as try as I might - I couldn’t listen to this - it’s probably a good story but it needs a new narrator

Terrible Narrator

Sorry I only got 15 minutes in to this and I couldn't put up with the narrators voice any longer. I have returned it.
