A Scottish Summer Escape

Synopsis

After losing the career she built her life around, Flora Fraser retreats to her grandmother’s lochside cottage in Rowan Bay for the summer.Rowan Bay offers peace, kindness . . . and Brodie Robertson. Brodie is infuriatingly self-assured, impossibly charming, and far too rooted in village life to fit into Flora’s temporary plans. Their first encounters spark with friction—and he always seems to be around when things go wrong. For Flora, it can’t get worse—until she and Brodie find themselves working together. What begins as a battle of wills slowly deepens into attraction, one that becomes harder to resist with every day.As summer unfolds, mornings spent swimming in the loch, evenings filled with laughter and long walks under starry skies, begin to heal parts of Flora she thought she’d lost. Rowan Bay feels less like a refuge—and more like home. But Flora has always believed her stay to be temporary. And Brodie belongs here. When the time comes for Flora to leave, both must decide whether this was simply a fleeting escape—or the beginning of something that could last beyond one perfect summer.A warm, uplifting, small-town romance about fresh starts, unexpected connections, and the courage to choose happiness. Perfect for fans of feel-good summer love stories from Sarah Morgan, Cressida McLaughlin, Phillipa Ashley, Cathy Bramley, Mandy Baggot, Emma Bennet, and Heidi Swain.
