Fiction

A feel-good story about friendship, family and finding your perfect fit…

'A book full of warmth and kindness. I loved it' Sarah Morgan

'A gorgeously romantic comfort read' Rachael Lucas

'Warmth, love, family dynamics and sparky drama' Sue Moorcroft

'A warm hug of a book' Phillipa Ashley

Gina Moss is single and proud. She's focused on her thriving childminding business, which she runs from her cottage at the edge of The Evergreens: a charming Victorian home to three elderly residents who adore playing with the kids Gina minds. To Gina, they all feel like family.

Then a run-in (literally) with a tall, handsome American stranger gives her the tummy-flutters… Before a tragedy puts her older friends at risk of eviction - and Gina in charge of the battle to save them. The house sale brings her closer to Dexter, one of the owners - and the stranger who set her heart alight.

As the sparks fly between them, Gina carries on fighting for her friends, her home and her business. But can she fight for her chance at love - and win it all, too?

A Patchwork Family was originally published as a four-part serial. This is the complete story in one package.

'Just perfect!'

'I absolutely loved it'

'A book that is easy to read and easy to get lost in'
