New neighbour. Tale as old as time.
Sixteen years ago, teenager Will Sterling saw – or rather, heard – the girl of his dreams. Now an unexpected inheritance has brought Will back to that same address, where he plans to offload his new property pronto and get back to his regular life as an overworked doctor.Bound by her loyalty to her adored grandmother, Nora Clarke won’t let Will’s plans ruin her quirky, close-knit building. With a little light sabotage, she sets out to foil his renovation efforts. But as their feud heats up, so does the attraction between them.
A balcony, a star-crossed couple, a fateful meeting – maybe it’s the kind of story that can’t work out in the end. Or maybe, it’s the perfect second chance…
A fun, tender and beautiful romance for fans of Mhairi McFarlane, Beth O’Leary and Sophie Kinsella.
