Pre-order the first book in a gorgeous new series of European-set romances!

One fresh start. One unexpected encounter. Can love bridge the gap?

When Rosie Harper leaves behind her ordinary life in England to open a flower shop on Amsterdam’s water, she expects nothing less than a fairytale.

But the city’s canals have their own currents, bringing far more than she bargained for. Max, her handsome but brooding artist neighbour, prefers to keep the world at arm’s length – and living on a nearby houseboat, he’s not too thrilled about the new company.

As Rosie’s business blossoms, so do her feelings for Max, who’s stuck in his past. When an unexpected threat arises that could sink her dreams, Rosie quickly discovers that the most beautiful things can bloom when you learn to go with the flow – sometimes you might just need a helping hand along the way…

A fun, feel-good romance that will whisk you away to Amsterdam's picturesque canals. Perfect for fans of Julie Caplin, Rebecca Raisin and Cressida McLaughlin.
