Job Advert - Wanted: unattractive woman with lots of patience and a sense of humour. What lunatic replies to an ad like this? Probably someone having the worst day of her young life.
It's the perfect job for heart-broken Millie who just lost everything including her confidence. She desperately needs a new start.
With nothing but a little courage, she sails to La Canette, a tiny rustic island in the English Channel. Her new boss is impossibly grumpy and doesn't allow cars or street lights on his island and he keeps trying to fire her.

Despite all this, the beautiful little island full of unique wild flowers soon awakens Millie's long-lost dreams of a wild-herb café by the sea. She also finds supportive loving friends and laughter. Gradually she blossoms into the beautiful confident woman she is meant to be.

The only problem is her boss' son. George might be handsome, rich and eligible but a painful memory from his past makes it impossible to trust.

He might be well out of her league, but winning his heart might turn out to be the easy part.
How can she allow herself to fall for him if it risks losing her newly discovered confidence and breaking her heart all over again?

If you enjoy the novels of Heidi Swain, Carole Matthews and Beth Moran, you'll love this beautiful, funny and moving novel.
Find out how Millie's story takes you to the gorgeous, unique world of La Canette and the English Channel Series.
