"description": "From the attic of Driftwood House there are stunning views of the deep green sea and sapphire sky. But Rosie can\u2019t tear her eyes away from the faded photograph in her hands, and the words written on the back that will change everything\u2026\n\nBack in the tiny seaside village of Heaven\u2019s Cove after the death of her mother, all Rosie Merchant wants is to hide her tears, rent out her childhood home, and get back to her \u2018real\u2019 life, away from the gossiping villagers and wild Devon weather she escaped from years ago.\n\nShe\u2019s surprised to find a smiling man in hiking boots \u2013 local farmer Liam \u2013 waiting on the stone doorstep. His kind offer to help clear crumbling, isolated Driftwood House is hard to refuse, and despite Rosie\u2019s determination not to let anyone get close, soon they\u2019re walking and laughing together along the clifftops. As clouds scud across the endless sky and green waves crash against the shore, Rosie is reminded that nowhere is more beautiful than home.\n\nThen, up in the attic of Driftwood House, Rosie stumbles across a photo which exposes the heart-stopping truth about how her mother came to live at Driftwood House years ago\u2026 and Liam only seems concerned about the implications for his own nearby farm. Did he know this painful secret all along, and should she run from Heaven\u2019s Cove for good? Or will facing up to her devastating family history mean Rosie can finally put down roots in this beautiful place? ",
