Sophie Cartwright is an overworked, exhausted, down-on-her-luck single mother to eight year old, Maddie. She has bills up to her eyeballs, an academically challenged daughter who refuses to go to school, and an ex with an ego the size of a small country. Just as life seems to be getting on top of her, and there appears to be no way out, she meets American Noah Bentley, a self-proclaimed piano man, and the new musician hired to play at the piano bar where she works. In normal circumstances, Noah and Sophie would have never crossed paths. They come from completely different worlds - literally. But each has something the other needs ... and the ability to change the other's life for the better.

She had eight years to plan her perfect escape. Her escape takes her to Derbyshire where she finds work as a housemaid at a grand estate called Ascot. While Elena had always planned to keep her head down, she cannot help but notice the handsome heir to the dukedom, David Wilde. But life is not like a fairy tale.

Introverted Charlie never expected to gain the attention of Dia, the chatterbox on the train, and he certainly wasn't expecting to fall in love. *** A few words can describe Charlie Jackson. He enjoys the simplicity of a coffee far more than the average person, and devotes too much time to his work - commuting included. But Charlie's life is far more complicated than meets the eye.

When Dia strolls into work one day, it seems that the universe has its own plans. Charlie instantly recognises her as the chatty woman from the train he takes five days a week.
