ESCAPE TO CORNWALL THIS SUMMER AND PRE-ORDER THE NEW NOVEL FROM HILARY BOYD NOW!

Pencarrow Bay has one more heart to fix after Gen is left picking up the pieces following her traumatic break up.

Just as she starts to heal, the last thing she expects is to be swept off her feet by a dashing Dutchman who sales into the bay. He’s the perfect distraction and their days enjoying one another under the Cornish sun.

But then Gen is left staring at a positive pregnancy test, and it offers her the chance to fulfil one of her biggest dreams. Even if she finds herself facing this new future alone.

They say 'it takes a village' and in the case of Pencarrow Bay, it really does...

Perfect for fans of Phillipa Ashely, Sue Moorcroft and Cathy Bramley
