Between London Fog and Cornish Heath

Glamorous galas and second chances fill Maisie's new life with possibilities in the Cornish series that brings laughter and tears alike.

Now that her novel has debuted, Maisie is living her dream of being a published novelist. Success, however, is a mixed bag, bringing with it modest critical acclaim, less-than-impressive sales, and an editor for her second manuscript who turns out to be an old acquaintance who is strangely at odds with her status as a published author.

If only her time away at the hotel in Cornwall would clear her head. But the season has brought new guests and sinister evidence of theft and possible vandalism. These events set interim head of housekeeping Brigette on edge, who demands staff help put a stop to the shenanigans.

Meanwhile, Maisie's foray into the literary community via her publisher's awards banquet ushers a potential writing mentor into her life —an unexpectedly charming one —whose work is eerily reminiscent of the author whose existence was virtually erased after a tragic accident.

Then there's Alex. As Maisie struggles to accept him as he is, she's growing afraid that his awareness of their past relationship is putting them both in emotional conflict. Is letting go the right thing to do—the only thing that will protect them both? Will the only way out of this predicament break her heart completely?
