Leah is accused of a crime she didn’t commit. Dumped by Adam, the man she planned to marry, she escapes to Aunt Jayne’s smallholding in the Kent village of Winkleigh Marsh. Heartbroken and homeless, she strives to clear her name and deal with her emotions.
Jayne treats Leah’s unhappiness with herbal remedies, cowslip wine and common sense in equal measure. In return Leah works hard for the delicious home-cooked meals they share. She wrestles with sheep, breaks nails and gets stuck in the mud – learning as much about herself as she does about farming. Soon Leah is happy milking cows, mucking out pigs and falling halfway in love with Duncan, a dishy tractor driver.
Back in London, steps are being taken to investigate what’s happened to the missing money. It looks as though the real embezzler must soon be unmasked and Leah will have to choose between resuming her old life or starting a new one.
That’s when her problems really start.
Available as a paperback, audiobook or ebook from Amazon, where it can also be read through kindle unlimited. The paperback version is available from most online book retailers and can be ordered through bookshops or requested in libraries.

Splashes of humour and a satisfying romance at the heart, along with some twists too
Tracy Goodreads 5 stars
It’s a great story with characters that are written so well that you really care about them. I laughed, I cried and I shouted “no” at them several times as I joined them on their journey.

The book has it all – humour, romance, poignancy, and a bit of a mystery to be solved too.
