A heart-warming and inspiring story about living the simple life, which readers are already likening to All Creatures Great and Small, 'like a Sunday Night ITV drama' 'Like a plate of hot-buttered crumpets and a mug of tea - warm, comforting and utterly delightful!' Annie Lyons (author of The Choir on Hope Street) Sam has always dreamed of working with animals... But her receptionist job in a London vets is not hitting the spot. Unsure whether a busy city life is for her, she flees to her Nana Peggy's idyllic country village. But despite the rolling hills and its charming feel, life in Hope Green is far from peaceful. On first meeting Joe, the abrupt and bad-tempered local vet, Sam knows she must get him on side, but that is easier said than done... With her dream close enough to touch, will she get there, or will events conspire against her...?
