Escape to the Scottish Highlands with a brand new spring romance from bestselling author, Julie Shackman.

Determined to overcome a family tragedy, Elle Cassidy decides to reopen her late mother's ailing newsagent as a stationery shop in the quiet Scottish town of Fir Haven.

But when the arrogant yet handsome crime writer Dexter Grayling almost runs over Elle in his beast of a sports car, the town is thrown into a tailspin – especially when Dexter claims that local resident Linda Carlucci has put a curse on him and he is no longer able to write.

Can Elle put aside her dislike for the self-absorbed writer and help Dexter uncover what is really going on with the Carlucci family? And in the process will Elle realise that there's a lot more to her beloved Fir Haven than she first thought…

Readers have escaped to the country, will you be next?

A story about forgiveness, healing and not judging others… you will fall in love with Fir Haven and its characters and this story will touch your heart in unexpected ways.

A heart-warming and funny romance with fab characters.
