Love Heart Lane – where friends are there for you no matter what
A second chance…
When her grandfather Marley passes away Grace Power discovers she’s been left the beautiful but crumbling estate of Heartcross Castle. As a single mum of three, Grace has no idea what she’s going to do with it – but who can say no to a roof over their kids’ heads and a chance to get away from past hurts?
And a forever home
Heartcross Castle is full of secrets – especially a lost security deposit box that holds the truth to everything… But when celebrity chef Andrew Glossop sets his eyes on the castle and, to make matters worse, mistakes Grace as the new housekeeper, Grace tells him there is absolutely NO CHANCE he is getting his hands on her home.
Devastated to have got it so wrong, Andrew will do anything to make it up to her – but is she willing to listen?

Review
Seventh in the series but well able to stand on its own, Heartcross Castle is a welcome return to Heartcross, where the future is bright and love conquers all.
I'd give a quick warning for past spousal abuse, but from start to finish this grows into such a positive story about coming home and starting again. It's a joy to see Heartcross through the eyes of prodigal Grace as she brings her three sons to the village from which she ran away and reconnects with the people she left behind. The boys are such wonderful characters and their excitement and mischief are infectious, and in fact all of the characters (many of them from past books) are likeable good sorts. My favourite character might be Delia the chicken, but Hector comes a close second!
The hurts and mistakes of the past can't be erased, but the future is still up for grabs. If you're looking for a pick-me-up about things going right, curl up with this book and a glass of your favourite cheap wine!
