American Star Mendoza is living in her dream location, Edinburgh, a
place she discovered in British novels while growing up. Employed
at a trendy city centre coffee shop, quirky, pink-haired Star
spends her days fantasising about a handsome businessman she serves
daily. He's totally out of her league but a girl can dream, right?
Fin Hunter is exhausted from striving for his father's elusive love
and approval, and of following a life path of his family's making.
When things go drastically wrong Fin decides it's time to stand on
his own two feet and follow his own dream. Star is bereft when her
handsome stranger stops coming to her coffee shop, but a chance
encounter in the most unlikely of places leaves her wondering if
her fantasy could now become a reality? Can opposites attract over
their love of a city and music or is their story simply doomed to
fail? Previously Published as 'Star Attraction' Praise for Lisa

Guidebook to walking Hampshire's Test Way, a 44 mile (71km) route
from Inkpen Beacon to the Eling Tide Mill near Southampton Water.
The walk, which is described over eight stages, takes in many of
the region's natural, historical and architectural delights, from
the ever famous 'Sprat and Winkle' railway to the River Test itself
- a stunning example of the exceedingly rare chalk stream. Each
stage (they range in length from 3 to 8.5 miles) is described
clearly and concisely, and is accompanied by 1:50,000 OS mapping.
Worth its weight in your backpack, the guide also includes
information on the history, geology and landscape of the Test
Valley, as well as practical information on accommodation and
transport. Additionally, it describes 15 circular walks in the Test
Valley, which vary in length from 3.75 miles (6km) to 8.5 miles
(13.75km). The Test Way passes through areas of intriguing history
and remarkable natural beauty. There are sites of Special
Scientific Interest (SSSI) and Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty
(AONB) as well as Iron Age hill forts, medieval churches, age old
abbeys, relics from a long passed railway era and quaint villages
brimming with thatch and flint and individual 'hostelries' to
match. It is a walk well suited to history and geology enthusiasts,
and certainly a must for anyone interested in the iconic Sprat and
Winkle railway.
