Peace, quiet and plenty of mud are all she needs to be happy. That and selling her riverbank finds in her little shop – Hidden Treasures.

Her mum's got a new lodger… She's volunteered Polly as his unofficial tour guide… And all her twin sisters will tell her is that he's a professor of classics… or an archaeologist… or something like that!

When Polly stumbles across a treasure in the shape of a dishevelled but dashing stranger stuck in the mud, her day takes a much brighter turn. This definitely isn't the crusty old academic she's been searching for! Will Polly finally learn that there's room in her life for a like-minded soul?
