Acknowledgements
I want to thank, most sincerely, Sarah Kettlety and Farmer Nick Sear, who run the Animal Antiks farm – the inspiration behind this story. They have been so generous with their help. The students are great and the animals they look after are characters in themselves!
Also I must thank the wonderful Donna Ray and Paul Eccentric without whom none of this would have happened. Paul is one half of the music and poetry duo The Antipoet, and author of the poems created especially for this book. You are both totally bonkers and we love every minute we spend with you. I’m so grateful to be able to call you our friends.
If you haven’t heard The Antipoet you should check out their work. They’re rude, lewd and will play for food: make sure to book them for weddings, christenings and important tea parties involving the vicar.

Christie Chapman is a single mum who spends her days commuting to her secretarial job in London and looking after her teenage son, Finn. It’s not an easy life but Christie finds comfort in her love of crafting, and spends her spare time working on her beautiful creations. From intricately designed cards to personalised gifts, Christie’s flair for the handmade knows no bounds and it’s not long before opportunity comes knocking.
Christie can see a future full of hope and possibility for her and Finn – and if the handsome Max is to be believed, one full of love too. It’s all there for the taking. And then, all of sudden, her world is turned upside down.
Christie knows that something has to give, but can she really give up her dreams and the chance of real love?

Visit The Cake Shop in the Garden
Fay Merryweather runs her cake shop from her beautiful garden. Looking after the shop, the garden and her cantankerous mother means Fay is always busy but she accepts her responsibilities because if she doesn’t do all this, who will?
Then Danny Wilde walks into her life and makes Fay question every decision she’s ever made.
Fay is aboard the Dreamcatcher when she gets a call that sends her back to where it all began, back to where she first met Danny, back to her friends and the Cake Shop in the Garden. It will be hard being away from Danny but their relationship is strong enough to survive … isn’t it?

Ruby Brown is ready for a change.
She’s single for the first time in years and she’s going to dive into this brave new world with a smile on her face and a spring in her step. The last thing she’s looking for is a serious relationship.
Mason represents everything Ruby wants right now: he’s charming, smooth and perfect for some no-strings-attached fun. Joe on the other hand is kind and attractive, but comes with the sort of baggage Ruby wants to avoid: an annoyingly attractive ex-wife and two teenage children.
Ruby thinks she knows what she wants, but is it what she needs to be truly happy?
