Jessica RedlandIsabel, Izzy to her friends, has got nothing left to
lose when she makes the bravest decision of her life. A month
living under canvas on the Yorkshire Moors with five strangers
wouldn't normally be her idea of a good time, even if there is
prize money to be won at the end of it, but she's all out of
options. Joining her in this wild goose chase, being filmed for a
TV show, are farmer Seb, whose marriage is creaking but who is
desperate not to lose his family. Sheltered Ruth who needs an
opportunity to show she can make her own decisions. Glamorous
socialite Kanga, who has been living a lie. American Junior who has
his own secret that has led him there. And last but not least,
mysterious and brooding Mac, who Izzy can't help but be drawn to.
As the fickleness of nature tests them all to their limits, this
disparate group come together to face the challenge. But when Izzy
finally tells them the truth that has brought her out on the Moors,
will that be the end of their adventure, or the beginning of her
future? Because what Izzy really needs is a place to call home, and
someone to share it with could be even better... Praise for Jane

Our Yorkshire Farm!Needing an escape, Dora swapped city living for
life as a shepherdess on her grandad's Yorkshire farm. More than a
decade later Dora is still there, now farming the fifty acres and

the call of the city, but instead relishes the peace and simplicity
of life on the Moors. When Dora's glamorous but quarrelsome sister
Cass, her teenage nephew Thor and his handsome tutor Nat, turn up
for an unexpected and unreasonably long stay, life on the farm is
thrown into chaos. Cass brings with her unwelcome memories from the
past, and of someone who once stole Dora's heart. Dora takes refuge
in the comforting routine of the farm, the sheep never allowing her
too much time to dwell. But, as the seasons change, the snow starts
to melt, and as lambs begin to fill the fields, Dora can't keep
hiding in the hills. Because even though she's trying, Dora can't
run away from a love that never really let her go... Let Jane

counsellor at work in York, she is however floundering in her own
life. Her romantic track record is woeful, her finances are in a
pickle, and she's back in a house-share after splitting up with her
useless ex. But one thing Ruby is brilliant at, is helping other

Escape the rat race by heading to the Yorkshire Moors in Jane
Lovering's funny, warm and magical new novel. Perfect for fans of
Our Yorkshire Farm!Needing an escape, Dora swapped city living for
life as a shepherdess on her grandad's Yorkshire farm. More than a
decade later Dora is still there, now farming the fifty acres and
caring for the one hundred rare sheep by herself. She never hears
the call of the city, but instead relishes the peace and simplicity
of life on the Moors. When Dora's glamorous but quarrelsome sister
Cass, her teenage nephew Thor and his handsome tutor Nat, turn up
for an unexpected and unreasonably long stay, life on the farm is
thrown into chaos. Cass brings with her unwelcome memories from the
past, and of someone who once stole Dora's heart. Dora takes refuge
in the comforting routine of the farm, the sheep never allowing her
too much time to dwell. But, as the seasons change, the snow starts
to melt, and as lambs begin to fill the fields, Dora can't keep
hiding in the hills. Because even though she's trying, Dora can't
run away from a love that never really let her go... Let Jane
Lovering whisk you away to the beauty and serenity of the Yorkshire
Moors, far away from the noise of the city. Just right for fans of
Emma Burstall, Holly Martin and Kate Forster. Please note that HOME
ON A YORKSHIRE FARM was previously published as HOME ON FOLLY FARM.

Matt DunnWelcome to the idyllic country retreat of Christmas
Steepleton, and let Jane Lovering whisk you away with the most
heart-warming, romantic and comforting read of the year. Leaving
London and her ex-husband Luc behind, Katie and her 14-year-old
daughter Poppy move into their very own, very ramshackle cottage
near the village of Christmas Steepleton on the Dorset coast.
Harvest Cottage has been unloved for many years, so the job of
bringing it back to life is a slow and expensive one. So, with
funds running low, Katie jumps at the chance when a film company
asks to use the cottage as a location. But even as things are
looking up, as harvest time passes and autumn chill starts to bite,
the prospect of a cold winter in the country is daunting. Some
light relief comes from new friend Gabriel, so different from
Katie's exuberant but arrogant ex Luc. Will their friendship
blossom into something more romantic, or will the reality of a
tough country winter send her and Poppy scurrying back to the
comforts of town? Let Jane Lovering spirit you away to the perfect
country escape, far away from the bustle of the city. Just right
for fans of Emma Burstall, Fern Britton and Kate Forster. What

Summer by the sea - a time to spread your wings, right? Leah has
come to Dorset to collect seaweed samples for a nutrition research
project. She's trying to leave behind a disastrous family life, and
is haunted by the death of her best friend, Claire, on whom she
relied for advice. Here she meets Brendon, an Australian come to
search for his mysteriously-vanished-from-the-family great
grandfather. Brendon has discovered a fear of British seagulls,
particularly Roger, a hand-reared bird which has taken a liking to
Leah. As Leah and Brendon form a summer friendship, their pasts
catch up with them. But together they help each other to see beyond
the narrow confines and mistakes of the past. The Seasons by the
Sea series combines laugh-out-loud humour with damaged people
redeemed by love.
Christmas by the sea - that sounds romantic, right? Tansy
Merriweather is down on her luck. She's lost her business and her
relationship, and instead of a glamorous London apartment, her home
is now a campervan on a Dorset beach. And as if things couldn't get
any worse, a scruffy dog called Brian with a taste for sardines has
adopted her. When Tansy's new-found friends at the cafe in the bay
help her find a job as a location scout for a new TV show, things
start looking up. However, when she finds herself babysitting the
show's grouchy star, Davin O'Riordan, she's not sure she wants to
stay around. But when Brian forges a touching romance with Davin's
elegant whippet Seelie, Tansy begins to see another side to Davin.
As Christmas approaches, secrets emerge and Tansy and Davin
discover a bond between them. But how will they cope with the
storms headed their way - and can they save the cafe from closing?
