Fliss Brown has grown up living with her mother on the Rossi family’s Italian fruit farm. But when her mother dies, Fliss finds out she has a family of her own, and heads back to England with Nonna Rossi’s recipe for cherry and almond tart and a piece of advice: connect with your family before it is too late…
Fliss discovers that her estranged grandfather owns a fruit farm himself, on the outskirts of Wynbridge, and she arrives to find a farm that has fallen into disrepair. Using her knowledge gleaned from working on the Rossi farm and her desire to find out more about her past, Fliss rolls her sleeves up and gets stuck in. But what will she discover, and can she resurrect the farm’s glory days and find a taste of home…?

What our readers think
Readers find this title to be a bright and sweet story, fitting well into the Wynbridge series. The book is well-written and enjoyable, with the added bonus of hearing about the characters from other books. While some readers felt that the character depth could have been better and the plot a bit too easy, overall it is a very sweet and satisfying read.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A bright, sweet story befitting of the Wynbridge series. It was a pleasure to jump back into this little world and I can't wait for the next one! You definitely don't need to have read any of the other books to understand this one, but it's worth it if you enjoy this genre.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I absolutely love all of Heidi Swain’s books and I love how you get to hear how the characters from the other books are doing. She is definitely one of my favorite authors.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Well written book, just not much character depth—at least the characters weren’t holding onto their flaws to the point of stupidity which is often the case in romance novels. Also it seemed like everything came a bit too easy—launching a new business is filled with more hurdles normally. I guess I was looking more for something like Barbara O’Neal. Very sweet.
