With red-rimmed eyes, Nellie dials the number on the thick solicitor’s letter. When she hangs up a minute later, she’s not sure whether to laugh, or start crying again. All she knows is that her life has changed forever...Nellie can hardly remember a happier time than the summers she spent at her Aunt Lil’s colourful beach house in the tiny seaside town of Muddleford. She has treasured her memories of the sea glistening beyond the sandy cove, and of a stolen kiss with a boy called Jack. When her life comes crashing down in spectacular fashion, followed by the discovery that she has inherited EVERYTHING from her aunt, suddenly Muddleford seems to be calling her home...She hasn’t been back for twenty years, not since her mum cut off all ties with Aunt Lil, but as soon as Nellie returns she’s welcomed back by the town. And she learns that everything really does mean everything – as well as getting used to gossiping with the locals over wine with sand between her toes, Nellie must adjust to life with her aunt’s excitable poodle.And Nellie isn’t the only one who’s grown up. She’s shocked to find Jack still in town. Now a devilishly handsome vet, he has the local pet owners – and Nellie – swooning over him, and as they become close once more, she’s sure she can feel sparks flying. But just as she thinks she might be able to open her heart again, she learns a secret about Jack that changes everything.Now Nellie has a painful choice to make. Should she sell the house, forget about Jack, and the mystery of why her mother and aunt parted ways?
