chef and gardner reunited - Rated
After Lucas's affair with his boss ruins their young marriage, Perdita and Lucas divorce and move on. After several years apart Perdita - who now owns her own successful business - finds herself face to face with her ex-husband - now a quailified chef. Perdita and Lucas have to deal with past, present and future all at once and although the sparks are still there, they are unsure whether old things are better left kept under the carpet. A twist of fate for Perdita means the only person who she can really rely on is Lucas...who is never too far away!!

Funny, quirky, the stuff wonderful relationships are made of - Rated
This is my first Katie Fforde read, what a delight. Feisty yet loving Perdita, arrogant Lucas
and beautiful Kitty make up a cast of characters
oozing with charm and depth. I adored the love
that is so obvious in this book, yet the humour
had he me laughing very loudly, in often very
public places. Fforde has found her niche as I feel Jane Green has found hers. Isn't there a little bit of Perdita in all of us, businesswoman,
former idealistic teenager, dutiful daughter, harried singlewoman yet a passionate but fearful adult. I did not particularly want to reach the end and would love to meet up with Lucas
and Perdita again.
