About this listen

The emotional, contemporary, and completely relatable novel from romcom sensation Nicola May

Previously published as The Hub by Nicola May.

Jilted by her soap opera fiancé, crime writer August Saunders decides to return to her roots in rural Wiltshire. Determined to reignite her writing mojo, she rents a desk in a shared workspace in local Futtingbrook Farm.

The converted barn comes with a motley array of fellow users, including a matchmaker, a TikToker with a dodgy nocturnal side-line and an ethical clothes designer—causing August to realize she doesn’t have far to look for real-life plot fuel!

There’s also a real-life mystery for her to solve. Why is Max Ronson, the handsome but volatile owner, so evasive about his past? And who or what is he hiding on the premises?

As August begins to unravel the shadowy secrets of Futtingbrook Farm, will her curiosity snuff out the spark of romance—or ignite it?

Nicola May uses her inimitable style to convey love, grief, and happiness, making Futtingbrook Farm as beloved a location as Ferry Lane Market or Cockleberry Bay.

Perfect for fans of Milly Johnson, Sarah Morgan, Jill Mansell, and Cathy Bramley.

Really loved listening to this. Narrator was excellent. Great characters, great story. Was able to lose myself in this during a really difficult time.
This is as good as the rest of them. I’m now waiting for the next one. Hopefully we won’t have to wait to long!!!

Just what I needed. Absolutely loved it…

Enjoyed every minute of this title, did not want to put it down, very well written with interesting characters. I have listened to the book twice now & am eagerly awaiting maybe a sequel?

captivating

Overuse of unnecessary bad language. Annoying use of 'bless' also. This wasn't a bad story, but has put me off listening/reading more from an author I've previously enjoyed.

Is this really Nicola May?
