About this item

Maddy fled the idyllic market town of Havenbury Magna three years ago, the scene of a traumatic incident she revisits most clearly in her dreams. Even so, when she is called back to help at the Havenbury Arms when her godfather Patrick suffers a heart attack, she is unprepared for the welter of emotions her return provokes. Psychologist and ex-army officer Ben is sure he can help Maddy to resolve her fears, until he finds himself falling for her, and struggling with a recently uncovered family secret of which Maddy is blissfully unaware. Then Maddy's mother, Helen, arrives and Patrick himself must confront a few uncomfortable truths about his history and the pub's future.



About the Author

Rosie Howard

Enjoyed one of the Havenbury books? Rosie Howard now writes as Poppy Alexander and would love to know what you think of her latest heartwarming, emotional books - where you can always be sure of a happy ending. Poppy takes an anthropological interest in family, friends and life in West Sussex (think, The Archers crossed with Twin Peaks) . This provides lots of entertaining material although any resemblance between her fictional characters and real life never ceases to amaze her when it is pointed out. You can catch up with her as PoppyAlexanderBooks on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram where she is mooching around trying to find excuses not to get on with her writing so please come and say hello. Finally, if you have enjoyed a Rosie Howard/Poppy Alexander book do please take a minute to leave a short review on Amazon. It truly makes all the difference. Thank you. x
