Unhappy with life in London, and with her love life a complete disaster, Ellie Chapman desperately needs a change. So when she learns she’s inherited a farmhouse perched high up on the cliffs above the English Channel, it feels like the perfect escape.

But ramshackle and dilapidated, and ruled by the world’s naughtiest donkey, Seabreeze Farm is not as picture perfect as Ellie imagined. And then there’s brooding local vet Ben Hastings, who seems to make it his mission to make life on the farm even harder for Ellie!

With money tight, Ellie slowly rebuilds the tired old farmhouse. And as the farm comes to life under Ellie’s care, Ellie’s spark returns too. Because as every day passes, Ellie begins to realise that there is something special about Seabreeze Farm, and there’s no other place she’d rather be.

A cosy and heartwarming new series from bestselling author Jo Bartlett, perfect for fans of Jessica Redland, Holly Martin and Heidi Swain.

Praise for Jo Bartlett:

'This is a lovely story about starting over, learning to trust again, and the value of friends and family. Perfect' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review

'The writing is quite superb – the setting is vividly described (you can feel the author’s love for the location), the emotional content perfectly tuned, the light humour really well-judged, and the whole story unfolds at a pace that’s essentially gentle but had me entirely involved throughout' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Reader Review
