Welcome to Willow Cottage - throw open the shutters, let in the sea
breeze and make yourself completely at home. Oh, and please do
leave a comment in the Guestbook! As landlady of Willow Cottage,
the young widow Annie Butterworth is always on hand with tea,
sympathy or strong Norfolk cider - whatever her colourful array of
guests require. A flick through the messages in the leather-bound
cottage guestbook gives a tantalizing glimpse into the lives of
everyone who passes through her doors. This includes Annie herself
- especially now celebrity crime writer Oliver Black, is back in
town. He might grace the covers of gossip magazines with a
different glamorous supermodel draped on his arm every week, but to
Annie, he's always just been Olly, the man who Annie shared her
first kiss with. Through the pages of the Guestbook Annie and Olly,
along with all the guests that arrive at the seaside retreat,
struggle with love, loss, mystery, joy, happiness, guilt...and the
odd spot of naked rambling! Forget sending postcards saying wish
you were here - one visit to Willow Cottage and you'll wish you
could stay forever. Praise for Holly Martin 'Holly Martin writes
about life and love with such big-hearted warmth and flair - invite
The Guestbook into your home today!' - Belinda Jones 'Funny,
poignant and riveting as well as romantic. Don't miss The

Home, sweet home... Joy Cartier has been to some of the most
beautiful places in the world - but none of them have ever felt
like home. So moving into a tiny cottage in the idyllic village of
Bramble Hill, walking distance from her childhood home, seems like
the perfect plan. That is, until she gets there. The surly
inhabitants of Britain's Friendliest Village are anything but
welcoming. Even her neighbour, reclusive Hollywood star Finn
Mackenzie, takes one look at her and walks in the other direction.
But when the village animosity steps up a gear, it is the
infuriatingly brooding Finn who keeps coming to her rescue. Slowly
Joy begins to realise that maybe a happy home isn't about where you
live, but who you're with... Praise for Holly Martin: 'I
