Home for the Summer

Finding new love can sometimes mean looking to old friends

Mum-of-two Cassie has spent the past two years coming to terms with the sudden loss of her husband and her children’s father. Now, she’s tentatively starting to look to the future – including dating. Her close friend, Pippa, and her daughter are keen to set her up with a newly arrived artist in Hartfell, but Cassie has her doubts.

Then Raf, Pippa’s brother, arrives in the village. A drummer in his dad’s band and long-standing friend, Raf and Cassie leaned on each other since Ewan’s death. Until they shared a passionate kiss a few months ago.

But Cassie can’t indulge an attraction for a man who’s always professed he’ll never settle down. With her heart still mending, can she take a chance on Raf?

A beautifully heartwarming and uplifting romance, perfect for fans of Heidi Swain, Sue Moorcroft and Milly Johnson.
