Book Description
Two old rivals. One dream job. And a summer they’ll never forget. Freya Johanssen needs a fresh start. A recently heartbroken and newly-qualified veterinarian, she will take any job that gets her away from Seattle—for now. Her plan is to spend two years in the small town of Whisper Falls, and then head back to the city and civilisation. And then Trent Crossley shows up, and her carefully laid plans are blown to pieces. He’s the last person she expected—or wanted—ever to see again. This is the guy who thinks he’s God’s gift to women; who breezed through vet school without studying and who betrayed her in a way she’ll never forgive. She thinks he’s an arrogant party boy; he thinks she’s an uptight perfectionist. Now he’s in her clinic, and the fluttering in her stomach must mean she’s still mad at him. It seems they have both been hired for the same job—and now neither is backing down. But as Freya works to outdo Trent at every turn, she starts to see a different side to the man she thought she knew. Falling in love was never part of her plan. And if she wants the new beginning she’s worked so hard for, can she afford to give away her heart? A totally unputdownable feel-good read about finding yourself, and love, in the most unexpected places. Fans of Virgin River, Debbie Macomber, Jill Shalvis and Carolyn Brown will love The Gable House. Readers can’t get enough of Ellyn Oaksmith: “Kept me hooked from start to end, I read it in one sitting… heart-warming.” Bookworm 86, 5 stars “A delightful story… warmed my heart and made the book impossible to put down… the perfect read.” Tessa Talks Books “A perfect summer vacation must-read… A well-deserved five stars.” Fiction Flock, 5 stars “I found myself staying up through the night swooning and sniffling in this heart-wrenchingly amazing romance… I was hooked from the very first page.” Nurse Bookie, 5 stars “This engaging and heart-warming story is so inspiring… a must read. It will have you flipping through the pages so fast, you will find yourself experiencing all the emotions with this one.” Page Turners, 5 stars “I adored it… Some funny little things that made me smirk and some sad ones that broke my heart AND a scene that made my eyes well up and my heart melt. Great ingredients mixed into a wonderful story.” B for Bookreview, 5 stars “A book that I adored and perfect for reading on a lovely sunny day… absorbed me immediately… feels real and as authentic as they come… full of heart-warming moments… Every emotion is brought to the fore.” Sharon Beyond the Books “Rich in friendship, family, and especially love. Add the many LOL moments… and you get a truly superb feel-good love story.” The Eclectic Review “An irresistible blend of laidback charm, intense emotion, rib-tickling humor and uplifting romance.” Bookish Jottings

The country estate of Tyringham Park is the epitome of wealth and privilege. Home to the Blackshaws, it finds itself the backdrop to tragedy. It is a beautiful day in 1917, and Tyringham Park is in an uproar after little Victoria Blackshaw, an innocent toddler, disappears without a trace. The feverish search for Victoria soon uncovers jealousies and deceits that both the upstairs and downstairs inhabitants of the grand estate have fought for years to keep hidden. As times passes, Victoria’s disappearance casts a long shadow over all of their lives. Charlotte, the Blackshaw’s less favored eight-year-old daughter, finds herself severely impacted by the loss of her sister. As the years pass, she begins to believe that her mother wishes it was she who had disappeared that day rather than the pretty Victoria. Her greatest wish is to escape the confines of the estate that she once loved; however, Tyringham Park and its mysteries may never release its hold on her. Like all those at Tyringham Park, she is forced into a web of passions and secrets, trysts and betrayals that affect the days of everyone connected to this once great house.
