Synopsis

The Kearton Bay series is set in a village on the North Yorkshire coast. Follow Eliza, Rose, Lexi and Rhiannon, as they make friendships, forge new careers, and fall in love … Kearton Bay is a close knit community, and there’s a lot going on there! From the ancient rooms of The Hare and Moon pub on the seafront, to the faded beauty of Whisperwood Farm; from the sweet delights of Mallow Magic, to the Elizabethan splendour of Kearton Hall, these witty romances will make you laugh, cry and long for a trip to Yorkshire.

Can lessons from the past change their future?

Lexi Bailey doesn't do love.

Having seen the war zone that was her parents' marriage, she has no interest in venturing into a relationship, and thinks romance is for fairy tales. As far as she's concerned, there's no such thing as happy ever after, and she's not looking for a handsome prince.

Will Boden-Kean has two great loves: his ancestral home, Kearton Hall, and Lexi Bailey. But the future of the first is in real jeopardy, thanks to his reckless and irresponsible father, and the chances of Lexi seeing him as anything except a good friend seem remote.

While Lexi gazes at the portrait of Will's seventeenth century ancestor, and dreams of finding the treasure that is reputed to be hidden somewhere in the house, Will works hard to turn around the fortunes of his home. When he goes against Lexi's wishes and employs the most unpopular man in the village, she begins to wonder if he's under a spell. Will would never upset her. What could possibly have happened to him?

As plans take shape for a grand ball, Lexi's life is in turmoil. With a secret from Will's past revealed, a witch who is far too beautiful for Lexi's peace of mind, and a new enchantress on the scene, things are changing rapidly at Kearton Hall. Add to that a big, bad wolf of a work colleague, a stepmother in denial, and a father who is most definitely up to no good, and it's no wonder she decides to make a new start somewhere else.

Then she makes a discovery that changes everything — but time is running out for her.

Is it too late to find her happy ending? Will Lexi make it to the ball? Will Buttons save the day?

And where on earth did that handsome prince come from?

"I absolutely devoured this love story."
"There are so many layers to the story that I just couldn’t turn the pages fast enough."
"Includes many an unexpected yet believable twist."
