After Summer must come fall...
Summer is only in Yorkshire for two weeks to sort out her late aunt's affairs and arrange the sale of her house. It's a fortnight that might be long enough for a holiday fling with a handsome farmer but surely it's not long enough to fall in love, is it?
When Ted meets Summer for the first time she changes his world forever but when she finds out a shocking secret about him, she flies home in tears, vowing never to speak to him again. Now Ted must track Summer down in New York and persuade her to give him and love a second chance.
Will Summer let go of her Yorkshire romance no matter how much it hurts or will she risk everything for a shot at her very own happily ever after?
A perfect holiday read for everyone who dreams of the warmth of summer even as the leaves start to fall.

JAKE'S BAILEY
..Bailey Thorne doesn't hate Jake the Rake, just despises him. She blames the rumor mill at her school...and, okay, him. His adorable son has only been in preschool, but Jake has already made an impressive dent in dating the unmarried faculty. She's had to hear of his every exploit from the broken hearts he's left behind. She was fine to loathe him from afar, but now his son has entered kindergarten-and she's the teacher. It's going to be a very long school year. Jake Polaski was more than fine to avoid Ms. Thorne after it became clear she was not amused by his very existence. But then they get stuck in an elevator for an evening. He finds out that underneath that baleful glare she always gives him, lies a warm, funny and sexy as hell woman. He does his best to not be smitten after every exchange afterward. His son needs him rational, steadfast...and love is the most uncertain thing. It was the elevator's fault. Had it worked like it should, Bailey would have gone on with her life without seeing why so many of her co-workers had fallen for the grumpy single dad. (It's his dry wit, his playful teasing and the drool-worthy cut of his jawline.) And now she's caught in the way he doles out smiles and the dark depths of his secrets. If nothing else, she knows from rumor there's a clock ticking on their affair before it implodes, because things always do with Jake the Rake, but she can't seem to walk away first.Complete
