The sparkling new Christmas novel from Sunday Times bestselling author Heidi Swain!

Freya Fuller is estranged from her parents and has since pursued her childhood dream of becoming a gardener. When the opportunity to design a winter garden opened up at a Victorian house in Nightingale Square, Freya jumped at the chance to make a fresh start. But while the majority of the residents are welcoming, local artist Finn seems determined to drive her away, and when Freya’s family suddenly appears, it seems her new life is about to fall apart.

Freya Fuller has been working as a gardener at a beautiful estate in Suffolk for the past three years. Unfortunately, the owner, Eloise, passed away and her house was taken over by her American nephew, who decided to sell the place, including Freya’s house which Eloise allowed her to rent.

When she is offered a job as gardener at the Victorian villa in Nightingale Square, which includes accommodation, Freya jumps at the chance, especially as she can take Nell, Eloise’s dog, with her. The residents of Nightingale Square are all lovely and friendly, except for local artist Finn, who was brought in to design some structures for the garden. He and Freya seem to clash about everything and have a frosty relationship.
