A Bird in the Hand - Paperback

Art, Fate, and Forbidden Love

Artist and naturalist Christopher Morton has been unexpectedly called to fill the post of vicar for Cherrybrook's neighbouring town of Wellsey. He quickly wins the hearts of his parishioners, but securing the hand of Miss Cherise Hamblin is out of the question, no matter how ardently he wishes otherwise.

Lord and Lady Hamblin live in daily expectation that their elegant daughter will receive a marriage proposal from the Wellsey heir, the arrogant but titled Lord Penfield. Cherise has other ideas. More interested in art than a marriage of convenience, Cherise's chance meeting with the new vicar at "The Artist's Folly", sparks a secretive correspondence that repaints both their lives.

Will autumn changes destroy the forbidden love between the humble vicar and the baron's daughter?

A Year in Cherrybrook is a four-part book series of sweet late Regency era romances. Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter each follow four light-hearted love stories all fixed in or around the fictitious English country village of Cherrybrook.

Kisses only, each book may be read in order or as a stand-alone story.
