DESCRIPTION:
Run away to the gold-tipped peaks and sparkling waters of the Lake District and the charming village of Thimblebury. Here, newly engaged village nurse Ottilie Oakcroft is about to discover a family secret that will turn the life she loves upside down…
As village nurse Ottilie Oakcroft and her fiancé Heath plan their engagement party, she can’t hide her feelings of pure happiness. She’s so settled in cosy Wordsworth Cottage and can’t wait to celebrate her exciting news with the villagers she’s come to know and love.
But, on the day of the party, as she strings up bunting and fairy lights, there’s a surprise in store. A young woman appears on Ottilie’s doorstep – claiming she’s Ottilie’s half-sister Fion and she wants to be part of Ottilie’s life.
Soon Fion’s feet are firmly under the table in Ottilie’s cluttered kitchen and Ottillie and Heath are spending less and less time alone. Ottilie loves having her sister living in the spare room, but she can’t help but notice that with no space to talk privately, she and Heath can’t see eye-to-eye.
Then a shocking secret about Fion comes to light, one that casts a long shadow over Ottilie’s own happiness and her future with Heath. Ottilie knows that family should come first, but what if it’s at the cost of her exciting new beginning?
A beautiful and heartwarming read that will sweep you away and make you feel at home! Perfect for fans of Jo Bartlett, Jessica Redland and Sarah Morgan.

MY THOUGHTS:
Ottilie Oakcroft, a resident of the charming village of Thimblebury, has been living a blissful life. However, her idyllic existence is about to take an unexpected turn when she discovers she has a half-sister named Fion. Amidst the excitement of her upcoming engagement with her new fiancé Heath, Ottilie and Heath are planning a grand party to share the joyous news with the entire village.
While Ottilie is thrilled about her wedding, the revelation of Fion does cause a slight setback. Despite the potential challenges, Ottilie and Heath remain optimistic about their future together. However, a few minor obstacles arise, raising concerns about the smooth progress of their future together.
Ottilie’s open acceptance of her newfound sister is heartwarming, and the village of Thimblebury, as expected, is a tight-knit community with a touch of gossip. This delightful story is a perfect one-sitting read that concludes on a high note.
Many thanks to Bookouture and to NetGalley for this ARC for review. This is my honest opinion.
