Cottage Stories

Cordelia Ashby had it all - a London mansion, a Bentley, and a wardrobe full of designer handbags. But when her husband dies, she discovers he has left behind nothing but mountains of debt. The bank swoops in, stripping away her home, her possessions, and even her sense of identity. With nowhere else to turn, Cordelia is forced to relocate to Hydrangea Cottage - a crumbling, overgrown property in the tiny Kent hamlet of Squirrel's Nest. Glamour gives way to cobwebs, mice, and leaky ceilings as Cordelia stumbles through her new reality, horrified at every turn. And then there's Brodie - the rugged, no-nonsense local horseman who seems to embody everything Cordelia is not. Their worlds clash spectacularly, but his disapproving stare may be exactly what she needs to face her own reflection. A witty, heartwarming tale of downfall and renewal, Where Hydrangea's Grow is about losing everything - and finding yourself where you least expect.

In the quiet countryside, two hearts intertwine amid sun-kissed meadows and flour-dusted aprons. Their love blooms like wildflowers, but life pulls them apart.

Their two-story house, named "Harmony House," echoes with melodies and whispered promises. 🍁 ~"To those readers who were never chosen."
