A year of taking chances…

After a nightmare year, Mia Sutherland is hoping for a fresh start. She’s putting the past behind her and pouring all her savings into renovating a crumbling guesthouse in the peaceful Butterfly Cove. She is determined that nothing will distract her from achieving her dreams.

That is, until her very first guest, Daniel Fitzwilliam arrives – quite possibly, the most gorgeous man she’s ever seen. He’s only here for a week, but already Daniel has turned her world upside-down. And as the tide turns, it’s clear that Butterfly Cove has more than one surprise in store for Mia…

An uplifting and heartwarming read, perfect for fans of Trisha Ashley, Heidi Swain and Beth Moran.

A masterfully written piece

Books just aren’t written like this anymore. The way the narration brings a melody to the words so masterfully woven, poetically drawing you in, hanging on each word. The scattering of words seemingly lost to modern writing highlighting how this book has a sophistication that others in this genre lack.

Novels by this author will grace my book shelves, not just my audio library. Although the narration is possibly part of the appeal, the narrator extremely talented in seamlessly shifting between characters, accents not as important as the mannerisms each character exudes.

The story is captivating and addictive and I look forward to enjoying the next books in the series, re listening to this while awaiting my next credit! And I will devour anything else this author has on offer!
