I’ve always had a soft spot for charming English villages, slightly overgrown gardens, and the quiet kind of stories where one small moment of courage can change everything. When I’m not writing, you’ll most likely find me in the garden, attempting a new recipe that may or may not turn into a small kitchen disaster, or browsing antique shops for treasures I absolutely don’t have space for.

A delightful summer read. Rosie makes the characters come to life, and the village become an ideal place to live. The different characters made me laugh and at times shed a tear, in their very realistic interacting. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars was that I would have liked more depth in the story. In spite of that, I very much enjoyed this story.
