Can Autumn turn her life around?

As spring flowers start to bloom in London, Autumn’s life is looking up! She has a great relationship with her brilliant teenage daughter Chloe and she’s on track to be Deputy Head at the London school where she works. And with a pay rise on the cards, she's excited for her and her long-term boyfriend Marc to buy their first home.

But Autumn’s barely opened the estate agent's website when Marc vanishes with half their savings, leaving her no choice but to move into grandma’s rural home in Kent. And things go from bad to worse when Autumn is involved in an accident during the move, leaving the village’s dashing new baker Jake in plaster cast, and making her a local outcast before she’s even unpacked her bags.

Determined to put things right, Autumn offers to help Jake in the bakery over the summer holidays. But as things heat up in the kitchen, Autumn can’t help noticing that Jake is a lot more Paul Hollywood and a lot less Mr Kipling than she originally thought.

Maybe this summer isn’t such a write off after all?

The BRAND NEW hilarious rom com from the bestselling author of THE FIXER UPPER, perfect for fans of Lindsey Kelk and Sophie Kinsella.

‘The perfect book’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review

This book fundamentally changed me and now I need to read every romcom I can get my claws on! I giggled, I almost threw my book, I kicked my little feet, and I finished it basically in one sitting … what more could you ask for?’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review

‘MacLeod weaves a tale of unexpected love, second chances, and the magic of warm summer days⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review

‘Phoebe Macleod writes easy to ready, sweet but not shallow books. She has a lovely writing style and she’s the sort of author that I feel safe with, that I know I’m probably going to love pretty much anything she writes - one of the finish-a-book-and-buy-one-straight-after-on-kindle kinda vibes!‘ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review

I love when a book can make me LOL in real life the whole time. This was such a fun rom-com and a safe one for people who like books without all the spice’ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader...
