Heartbroken Tess Tennant is fleeing London for a fresh start. She's dreaming of familiar faces, picture-perfect cottages & Adam, her best friend since childhood. But Langford, a lovely slice of Jane Austen country, is at war over a scheme to build on a local water meadow & Adam is too wrapped up with a new girlfriend to tend to Tess's bruised heart.
A trip to Rome promises a respite & when a mysterious stranger whisks Tess into a dream of Italian moonlight & prosecco, she's ready to be reckless. But her magical holiday ends with a shocking discovery & Tess finds herself back home
- & in a tangled mess of friendships & feelings.
