New home, new friends, new love. Can star
t
ing over be that simple?
Tess Riddell
 
reckons her beloved Freelander is more reliable than any man - especially
 
her
 
ex-fiancé, Olly Gray.
 
She’s
 
moving on from her old life and into the perfect cottage in the country.

Miles Rattenbury’s
 
passions? Old cars and new women!
 
 
Romance? He's into fun rather than commitment.

When
 
Tess crashes the Freelander into his brea
k
down
 
truck, they find that they’re nearly neighbours – yet worlds apart. Despite
 
her overprotective parents and
 
a su
d
denly
 
attentive
 
Olly, she discovers the joys of village life and even forms an unlikely friendship with Miles. Then, just as their relationship develops into something deeper, an old flame comes looking
 
for
 
him
 
...

Is their love strong enough to overcome the past? Or will it take more than either of them is prepared to give?

All That Mullarkey

 

Revenge and love: it’s a thin line …

 

The writing’s on the wall for
Cleo
and
Gav
.
The bedroom wall, to be precise. And it says ‘This marriage is over.’

 

Wounded and furious, Cleo embarks on a night out with the girls, which turns into a glorious one night stand with …

 

Justin, centrefold material and irrepressibly irresponsible. He loves a little wildness in a woman – and he’s in the right place at the right time to enjoy Cleo’s.

 

But it’s Cleo who has to pick up the pieces – of a marriage based on a lie and the lasting repercussions of that night. Torn between laid-back Justin and control freak Gav, she’s a free spirit that life is trying to tie down. But the rewards are worth it!

Depends on who’s making the rules.

Harry Watling has spent the past five years keeping her

wants to
 
turn the boat yard into an upmarket housing complex for his exotic new restaurant, it’s like declaring war.

And the odds seem to be stacked in Matthew’s favour. He’s got the colourful locals on board, his hard-to-please girlfriend is warming to the idea and he has the means to force Harry’s hand.

Then a family secret from the past creates heartbreak for
 
Harry, and neither of them is prepared for what
 
happens
 
next …
