Story
Welcome to Love Heart Lane…
When Flick Simons returns to the small village of Heartcross she only expected to stay for a few days. The white-washed cottages of Love Heart Lane might be her home, but the place holds too many painful memories, and of one man in particular – Fergus Campbell.
When a winter storm sweeps in, the only bridge connecting the village to the main land is swept away! As the villagers pull together, Flick finds herself welcomed back by the friends she once left behind. And as the snow begins to melt, maybe there is a chance that Fergus’s heart will thaw too…
Is your book part of a series / standalone? There will be more books based around Love Heart Lane – even though this is the first one in the series they can be read standalone too.
My thoughts
Nestled in the mountains, surrounded by mountains, snow and some great villagers with warm hearts full of friendships. I loved Flick and Fergus’s story as much I enjoyed the rest of the characters in the story. There’s strength in people’s characters, their emotions and beliefs.
The characters stood up not only for themselves but also for the people they loved even for simply humanitarian reasons. It is what created the magic and pulled together the story for me just as the situations in the story brought the whole village together.
The story will weave a magical illusion over you and you’ll find yourself invested in the lives of the beautiful village of Heartcross.
