Overview:
Step into four warmly inviting romances from Katie Fforde, each a standalone tale that combines fresh starts, hopeful choices, and the comforting cadence of a well-telt love story. A Summer at Sea follows a midwife who swaps routine for a sunlit Scottish summer aboard a puffer boat, where independence and romance share the shore. A Country Escape invites Fran to pursue a childhood dream of farming in the idyllic Cotswolds, where a run-down farm becomes the stage for resilience and new beginnings. A Secret Garden unfolds at a grand manor, as Lorna and Philly uncover a hidden oasis that unlocks both romance and personal growth. A Rose Petal Summer pairs a country estate with a second chance at love, all under the glow of long, sunlit days. This collection is ideal for readers craving cosy, contemporary romance with strong heroines, charming settings, and satisfying happily-ever-afters. Each book stands alone, but together they offer a bright, escapist reading journey.

The heroines face real-life choices with wit, warmth, and resilience, finding love when they least expect it. Collectors will enjoy the consistent, high-quality presentation across the quartet, while gift buyers will appreciate the ready-made four-book gift that delivers instant immersion and multiple happy endings.

A Summer at Sea
Set against the bracing beauty of the Scottish coast, A Summer at Sea blends maritime atmosphere with intimate, character-driven romance.

A buoyant, uplifting read that captures the thrill of new horizons.
A Country Escape
In A Country Escape, Fran follows a lifelong dream of farming, moving to a run-down Cotswold farm with the hope of turning it around within a year.

With warmth and humor, this is a portrait of fresh starts, community, and the courage to rewrite your own happy ending.
