What to expect
The start of a swoon-worthy series from Hannah Lynn, bestselling author of the Holly Berry Sweet Shop series!
New starts and hopeful hearts...
At 25, Daisy May’s life is not living up to expectations. Her childhood dreams of being an artist feel as unachievable as a committed relationship or managing to save enough money for a deposit on a house. But a surprise inheritance could change all that.
After Daisy learns she’s now the new owner of a forty-foot narrow boat, she sets out for Wildflower Lock, where the fresh country breeze and the calm water is enough to assure her everything will be okay.
With the help of the ruggedly attractive, yet grumpy riverman, Theo, she begins to work on her new home, the September Rose. Can she breathe new life into the old boat and learn to navigate not only the canals themselves, but also the people who live there? Or will the whole venture pull her under?
Get ready to sail away with this escapist, feel-good romance that is guaranteed to delight readers of Katie Fforde, Heidi Swain, and Jill Mansell.
