Fate may have brought them together, but real life keeps getting in their way...
Losing her passport and avoiding a persistent ex, Gemma's six-month sabbatical to go travelling is not off to a strong start. She heads to Polkerran Point to stay at her aunt's while her new passport is processed and to find temporary work in the meantime.
Enter musician Matt. Newly moved into a secluded, renovated mill - complete with a recording studio - Matt is preparing for his band's big reunion tour. Focused on writing new music for the album, he needs a live-in housekeeper.
Even as sparks fly, Gemma can sense Matt's keeping secrets. And with her passport due to arrive at any point, can anything happen between them?
A cosy, festive Cornish romance for fans of Phillipa Ashley and Cressida McLaughlin.
