Love in a Mist – Sara Sartagne

Available for pre-order, this lovely romance is pure escapism.

Ella Sanderson manages the farms and estate at Ashton Manor. She’s an old-fashioned girl who knows what she likes. And she hates the ultra-modern garden designed by horticulture’s bad boy, Connor McPherson which will destroy the place that brought her solace and potentially empty the estate’s coffers.

Plus, Connor is just the type she’s learned to mistrust. Bright blue eyes and Irish charm may have captivated her employer Lady Susan—but not her! Ella can’t overrule Lady Susan’s wishes for the garden, but she can just… not help.

Connor McPherson didn’t want the commission, but as the garden will host his best friend’s wedding, he couldn’t refuse it. If the wettest English weather on record hasn’t completely blown his chances of completing the build for the big day, he’s also battling the snooty estate manager who couldn’t be less enthusiastic.

When mounting problems force them to work together, the stage is set for fireworks between the hot-tempered Irishman and the cool, contained estate manager. But Connor starts to realise that beneath her buttoned-up exterior, Ella has a passion equal to his own and a secret she’s hidden for years.

As Ella fights to get the garden she hates built in time for the wedding she’d rather not attend and safeguard the manor from unwelcome publicity, she’s increasingly drawn to the tempestuous designer. Who, she discovers, has his own secrets to protect…

Meet old friends from The Garden Plot in the next in the series of the English Garden Romance series.

Fans of Jill Mansell and Kaie Fforde will enjoy this happy-ever-after story with a hint of spice!
