About the book
Could she share a house with a total stranger? Sara had promised she'd look after Rosemary Cottage and its herb garden exactly as Great-Aunt Jane had done for so many years. But that was before her aunt changed her will, leaving half the property to Leon Longley, a man Sara had never even met. A man who had no sentimental attachment to the cottage and its garden. In fact, Leon made it perfectly clear he wanted to demolish it and build vacation homes on the land. Sara and Leon weren't likely to see eye-to-eye on anything. Whatever had possessed Great-Aunt Jane to throw them together?
