Ten years ago, Rob Connelly’s mother died, and he turned to his girlfriend, Flo Pelletier, for love and emotional support which she hadn’t been able to give him. So he’d looked elsewhere for comfort. A one-night stand had turned into a commitment which had exiled him from both his home and his happiness. But now he’s back and Flo doesn’t want anything to do with him.
Rob’s apparent rejection of Flo had only confirmed what she’d always felt at a fundamental level—she can’t trust in love and can rely only on herself. From her hippy parents to her boyfriend, everyone she loves leaves her. So, what choice does she have but to keep her heart armor plated, and her affections solely focused on her home, friends and paying guests?
But with a house as shaky as her finances, Flo is forced to accept Rob’s offer to renovate the house to keep her business afloat. But will their relationship heal or will it founder amid Flo’s insecurities and secrets which literally emerge out of the woodwork?
I write emotional, heartwarming romances with stories which make you turn the pages, and characters who feel real — whether they be sheikhs, knights or everyday people whose lives are usually far from everyday (at least in my books).
I live in beautiful New Zealand in a village by the sea. It’s here, in a sunny window seat overlooking the hills, that I write my books.
Wherever you are in the world, welcome to my little corner, where I create worlds where people struggle with life and emotions but are always rewarded with love and happiness in the end. Because that’s non negotiable!View all by Diana Fraser
