Summary

Brand-new from the best-selling author of The Village Shop for Lonely Hearts.

After escaping her parents’ unhappy marriage to sleepy Cranbridge a long time ago, Belle Clarke dreams of staying at The Black Swan Inn forever.

But with the rundown inn threatened with closure, Belle may be forced to leave, unless a buyer can be found...quickly.

So, when her oldest friend, Pete Kennedy, returns from working abroad with a plan to save the Inn, Belle should be overjoyed. The trouble is, Pete has some rather radical ideas for the renovation which Belle disagrees with.

But when a snow storm hits, Belle and Pete are forced to put aside their differences and work together to help the village.

Can Belle realise her dreams to stay in Cranbridge, and can Pete ever stop running from his past

As they try to save The Black Swan Inn, secrets are revealed and just maybe, they’ll finally find out how they really feel about each other.

Lovely

Really lovely to listen to this book, another good one for the series. I do look forward to the next one. nice to hear about the character from the other books, but good that the story does have a different main person to keep it interesting.

Great!

I love cranbridge its a lovely little village with a fabulous community. I read/listened to the other books in the series before this one and although I knew the outcome of this it didn't effect how much I enjoyed it. it really was great, just wish it didn't have to end.
The narrator also helped with bringing everything to life and giving it a realistic feel to cranbridge and the characters.

Simply Wonderful

Such a lovely addition to The Riverside Lane series. It's nice that each book focuses on a different character.

Not a quick pick you up

I found this book very gloomy and depressing it went on for most of the book about Belles sad life , which she couldn’t get over and every one else was affected by her bad mood in one way or another until the last few short chapters where she realised Pete was and had always been her everything. This certainly was not a quick pick you up read.
