Perfect for you if...

  • You love the grumpy-sunshine dynamic with genuine chemistry and banter that crackles across the page.
  • You enjoy fish-out-of-water stories where a big-city character finds unexpected peace in a small English village.
  • You want a romance with real stakes where both characters have reasons to resist falling in love, making it feel earned.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer high-angst plots with genuine obstacles; this leans into the cosy side of romance rather than dramatic conflict.
  • You're looking for a standalone; this is book one in a series, so you'll want more after finishing.
  • You find celebrity romance premises gimmicky or prefer stories grounded in everyday life over Hollywood glamour.

About this book

Lando Burlington, the eleventh duke of Oxfordshire, has recently ended an engagement and become England's most eligible bachelor—a title he resents. His mother's attempts to match him with suitable women frustrate him further. When she rents his former pre-marital home to Holiday Simpson, an American actress seeking refuge from Hollywood, Lando finds avoidance impossible in the small village of Valentine Nook. Holiday came to Oxfordshire to escape the demands of her career and public life. She finds Lando attractive but grumpy, and initially they clash. As they encounter each other repeatedly in the village, Lando begins to reconsider his first impressions, particularly when Holiday smiles at him. Holiday insists her stay is temporary and she has no interest in romance. However, as summer progresses into autumn, their connection deepens, and Lando must decide how their story will end before it is too late.
