A new start. A new romance?

When businesswoman Maddy Young is made redundant from the job she loved so much, she takes her wounded pride back to her childhood home - the village of Giddywell.

Best friend Beth needs help with her doggy daycare business and Maddy is the obvious choice to help out. After everything, time on her hands is the only thing she does have.

With Beth's brother - and Maddy's schoolgirl crush – Alex, back from the States, she realises he still makes her heart flip. But when she receives an offer that looks too good to refuse, she's tempted back by her old life. Will she discover that the key to her future lies here, in Giddywell, making other people happy?

An uplifting romantic comedy that will warm your heart, perfect for fans of Cathy Bramley, Milly Johnson and Lucy Dillon.
