She's fighting for her future. He's given up on his. But love has other plans.

After the loss of her grandparents who raised her, Roni Kennedy is struggling to keep her small market garden afloat. With no one left to lean on, she must find a way to grow the business. But it means confronting her greatest fear... numbers.

Enrolling in a local finance class dredges up painful memories of school, where Roni always felt left behind. But it also brings her into the orbit of Joe Cole, a kind lecturer, his warm-hearted wife Ruth, and their son Simon -- once a dedicated teacher, now bitter and withdrawn after losing his leg in a hit-and-run.

Simon wants nothing to do with Roni, but her resilience stirs something in him. And when she considers walking away from her dreams, Simon refuses to let her taking her under his wing.

As a friendship begins to blossom it makes way for something more, something that could be love. But before they find a new beginning together -- they must first confront their pasts holding them back.

An uplifting and moving contemporary novella -- perfect for fans of Susan Wiggs, Mhairi McFarlane, Abbie Greaves and Jojo Moyes.
