Time to Move on
AN UNPUTDOWNABLE HISTORICAL FAMILY SAGA YOU’RE SURE TO FALL IN LOVE WITH.
Wales, 1952.
Seranne Laurence is furious.
Her mum, Jessie, has just announced her engagement to Paul Curtis, the latest man in a slew of unsuitable suitors. He’s known as a womaniser and he’s not even old enough to be her father!
Seranne can’t bear to stick around and watch her mum make a fool of herself, again. Filled with resentment, Seranne moves to the small village of Cwm Derw and into Badgers Brook cottage, leaving her mum and the family business — their beloved tea rooms — behind.
As Seranne settles into her new life, she finds many friends, including the alluring Luke, who is just as infuriating as he is handsome. He laughs at her misfortunes and quick temper, but she gladly accepts his friendship.
With storm clouds brewing in the distance, their budding relationship is about to be pushed to the limit. Can they survive the storm, or will Jessie’s marriage to the sly Paul be the undoing of them all?
Perfect for fans of Nadine Dorries, Tania Crosse, Freda Lightfoot, Anna Jacobs, Rosie Clarke, Fern Britton, Faith Hogan and Bill Kitson.
