She has just moved in to a beautiful but very run-down farm in the Cotswolds, currently owned by an old aunt who has told Fran that if she manages to turn the place around in a year, the farm will be hers. But Fran knows nothing about farming. She might even be afraid of cows.

      "Sian Bishop has left behind the hustle and bustle of the city and thrown herself into a new life in the country. With her young son, her picture-postcard garden and her small thriving business, she's happy and very busy. She is not--repeat not--looking for love. And then, one glorious summer evening, Gus Berresford arrives. One-time explorer, full-time heartbreaker, Gus is ridiculously exciting, wonderfully glamorous--and, Sian tells herself, completely wrong for a romantically cautious single woman like her. But she and Gus have met before. And, despite Sian's best intentions, it isn't long before she's falling for him all over again"--Page 4 of cover.
