What to expect
The BRAND NEW uplifting, feel-good romantic read from bestselling author Lisa Hobman 
Must-read for fans of Jessica Redland, Julie Shackman and Eliza J. Scott!
What would you wish for if you had one chance?
Esme Cassidy had two dreams growing up: to be a famous film star, and to own Drumblair Castle.
Sadly, overly cautious parents put paid to a career in front of the camera, instead encouraging her to study towards a ‘proper job’, and Lady Olivia MacBain is the current custodian of ‘her castle’.
After graduating and a year travelling, Esme returns home broken-hearted and throws herself into her new role as Lady Olivia’s PA at Drumblair Castle. It’s not quite her original dream but at least she’s living at the castle in one of the estate cottages with her housemate and friend, handsome, yet quirky, groundsman Judd.
With the news that the castle will be used as a film set for a period movie, Esme gets to witness first-hand the career she missed out on. And with her teenage crush in the starring role, she can’t believe her luck. But he wouldn’t be interested in a girl like her, surely?
Perfect for the fans of Alison Sherlock, Jessica Redland and Fay Keenan
