Description
Buying a thatched cottage in the country may not be the usual cure for a broken heart, but after Clara Maxwell finds out her boyfriend and best friend had been sneaking around behind her back, packing her bags and leaving everything in London behind feels like the only way forward.
Clara knew Acorn Cottage would be a fixer-uppert. Yet in person the cottage is less charmingly ramshackle and more a real health and safety concern. When Henry Garnett, her rather handsome new contractor, turns up with his little daughter Pansy and a van shaped like a cottage in tow, she is not sure whether to laugh or cry. What on earth has she gotten herself into?
Still, there is something strangely lovable about the people in the little village of Merryknowe, from Rachel Brown, the quiet, lonely girl who bakes magical confections for the tearooms, to Tassie McIver, a little old lady with a lot of wisdom and a penchant for reading tea leaves. And Clara cannot deny that Henry and Pansy are quickly worming their way into her heart.
With all the heartbreak of the year behind her, could Acorn Cottage be the fresh start Clara so desperately wants?
A heartwarming, uplifting village romance for fans of Holly Martin, Tilly Tennant and Cathy Bramley.
