Life in the village isn' t always sweet and simple . . . When single mum Olivia uproots her young son Darcy from their life in Tasmania for a new start in the English Cotswolds, she isn' t exactly expecting a bed of roses - but nor is she prepared for the challenges that life in the picturesque village throws her way. The Renaissance Project hopes to bring the dwindling community back to life - to welcome migrants from around the world and to boost the failing economy - but not everyone is so pleased about the initiative. For cake maker Olivia, it' s a chance for Darcy to finally meet his Norwegian father, and for her to trace the last blurry lines on what remains of her family tree. It' s also an opportunity to move on from the traumatic event that tore her loved ones apart. After seven years on her own, she has all but given up on romance, until life dishes up some delicious new options she didn' t even know she was craving. An uplifting and heartwarming story about the moments that change your life forever, human kindness and being true to yourself. Praise for Josephine Moon- ' A mountain of heart, an abundance of soul and a banquet of mouth-watering food. ' Good Reading ' You can' t go wrong with a book by Josephine Moon. ' Vanessa Carnevale ' A delightful page-turner and a truly moving tale. ' Better Reading
