'Anna Jacobs' books have an impressive grasp of human emotions' - Sunday Times

From the bestselling author of the Larch Tree Lane series


Abigail Beadle has given two decades of her life to caring for her late father and preserving the family home, Ashgrove House in Wiltshire.

It is not until Lucas Chadwick, the man she loved when she was young, returns to the village that Abigail begins to believe her life might be able to start at last ...
