_________________'Thank goodness for Katie Fforde, the perfect author to bring comfort in difficult times. She really is the queen of uplifting, feel good romance.' AJ PEARCE___________________________Has Laura found her leading man? A wonderfully romantic novel from the No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of A Rose Petal Summer, A Vintage Wedding and A Summer at Sea.

Falling in love can be all too easy...

When the bookshop where Laura works is about to close, she finds herself agreeing to help organise a literary festival.

Laura's initial excitement turns to dread when an innocent mistake leads the festival organisers to believe that Laura is a close friend of Dermot Flynn. An infamous writer at the top of their wish list and a notorious recluse to boot.

Always one to rise to a challenge, Laura sets off for Ireland to convince her literary hero to attend the festival.

Falling for him was never part of the plan...
