A New Arrival in Upper Bamton Alice Merryfield’s plans for revitalising Upper Bamton Vineyard are starting to unravel… The new visitors’ centre is nowhere near being finished… She might have made a mistake when she hired her ex-boyfriend for the job… And now he and his team of builders have done a bunk! With the first Knit One Pour One wine and wool evening looming, Alice doesn’t have anywhere to host it – and her nerves are fraying fast. Is it too late for Alice to unpick the tangle she’s in? Could her ex spin a convincing enough yarn to win her back? One thing’s for sure – the vineyard’s future is hanging by a thread, and change is coming whether Alice is ready for it or not! Rainy Days in Upper Bamton Patricia Woodley is having one of those days… weeks… okay, okay… months… Her beloved old bicycle has given up the ghost… She really doesn’t like the idiot contraption she bought as a replacement… And to top it all off, the ceiling of her spare room has sprung a leak and ruined weeks of hard work. Patricia’s not one to easily loose her temper, but with the most important deadline of her career fast approaching - she’s back to square one and her stress levels are at an all-time high. As the rain continues to fall and the river threatens to burst its banks, will a pair of strong arms wearing a beautifully knitted jumper manage to put Patricia back on track? Or is she simply in for a dangerous dunking? Hidden Treasures in Upper Bamton Keeping a big secret in a tiny community is never easy, but that's just what Polly Binmore has been doing ever since she moved to Upper Bamton Polly lives life on her own terms. 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. Unfortunately, her chaotic, noisy and loving family seem to think that she's been left undisturbed for long enough - and they're determined to give her a good shake-up! 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? Could this stranger help her discover feelings she's kept buried? Or is he just here to uncover the long-held secrets of the past? Time Flies By in Upper Bamton Nell Fernsby is very good at waiting… but she’s finally had enough. It’s time for a change… It’s time to take control… It’s time for an adventure before it’s too late! Unrequited love might make people swoon in the movies, but as far as she’s concerned, it wears pretty thin after a while. Nell’s got a plan to make the man of her dreams finally sit up and take notice. All she needs is the help of her rather dashing next door neighbour Bill – who also just happens to be a pilot. As Nell discovers what it’s like to tingle from head to toe again, she plans the trip of a lifetime for the biggest stick-in-the-mud Upper Bamton has ever seen. The question is – will Arthur Merryfield succumb to her charms – or will he run for the hills of the vineyard when he finds out what she’s got in store? Get your flying-goggles on and head to Upper Bamton to share Nell’s long-awaited happy ever after. One thing’s for sure, there will be plenty of wine, wool and worry along the way!

Book Description
Holly Billingham is in seventh heaven - it’s her favourite time of year – and she’s determined to celebrate it properly. Her pine-scented house is festooned with tinsel and dripping with mistletoe… and no, she won’t apologise! All this sparkle is for her. Just her. And that’s okay. Really it is. Holly had almost forgotten what it felt like to celebrate Christmas. Her ex-husband, Colin, was the biggest scrooge she’d ever met. Now that she’s finally free of him - she's got a lot of making up to do for all those barren, tinsel-free years. Bouncing into Billingham’s Finest Chocolates, Holly can’t quite wrap her head around why everyone else looks like they’ve been bitten on their behinds by something far less fun than the festive spirit. Her grandad’s gorgeous little chocolate factory is her favourite place on earth. Sure… it’s taking her a while to get to grips with the fact that it’s her factory now… but she’s sure the rest of them will warm to her… eventually! Her grandad’s old workforce is a well-oiled machine – admittedly one that still runs on steam power – but they know better than her how to handle the holiday rush. Holly’s determined not to get in the way… until she hears something less-than-festive muttered on the breeze… something to do with Colin. Cue one seriously cute locksmith, an ancient Labrador with a thing for Christmas jumpers, and a whole lot of yuletide chaos as Holly makes it her mission to ensure that even the most ardent grump feels the full force of her season’s greetings. A feisty, funny, festive romance... for anyone in serious need of some holiday spirit! For fans of Heidi Swain, Holly Martin and Polly Babbington.
