'I don't suppose you'd care to house-sit for a while...'

Hetty Longden's mother thinks that looking after Great Uncle Samuel's crumbling stately home will be just the thing for Hetty's broken heart. Hetty doesn't mind; at least she can be miserable in private. But 'private' is a relative term in a village which revolves around the big house. Particularly when you are expected to thwart Great Uncle Samuel's awful heir, and his nefarious plans for his inheritance.

Pitchforked into the community's fight to save the manor, Hetty has no time to wallow. And once she has shared her troubles with one neighbour (Caroline: a very understanding shoulder, despite her glamorous appearance and impossibly long legs), and cast an appreciative eye over another (Peter: equally long-legged, but offering rather more practical help), she wonders if her heart is irretrievably broken after all...

About the Author:

Katie Fforde is the queen of feel-good fiction—serving up heartwarming stories filled with quirky characters, blossoming romances, and the kind of everyday magic that makes you smile from the very first page. Whether it's a country cottage, a vintage market, or a pottery class gone delightfully wrong, Katie knows how to turn life’s little moments into big, beautiful stories.

Before becoming a bestselling author, Katie wore many hats (including that of a dinner lady and a temp)—which means she writes real women you’d love to have as a friend, navigating life, love, and sometimes a little chaos, with charm and courage.

With hits like A Vintage Wedding, Love Letters, and A Springtime Affair, Katie’s books are like a warm cuppa on a rainy day—comforting, cozy, and impossible to resist. And as a proud supporter of new writers and President of the Romantic Novelists' Association, she's as lovely in real life as the worlds she creates on the page.

If you're in the mood for romance with a generous dash of British wit and heart, Katie Fforde is your go-to literary bestie.
