Accountant, Sue Sheridan thought she had a solid, predictable life—until her husband of twenty-five years announces he’s off to "find himself" at a Portuguese wellness retreat, alone.

Stunned but defiant, Sue decides if Dave can follow his dreams, so can she. When she stumbles upon Well Cottage, a picture-perfect home in the Welsh Borders, it feels like fate. But her fresh start quickly unravels—until local vet Stephen (and his three-legged dog, Tipi) come to her rescue.

Stephen, still bitter from his ex-wife’s betrayal, has sworn off relationships. He’s happy with his quiet life—until Sue literally crashes into it. She’s newly separated, possibly still married, and too tempting. Definitely best to keep his distance.

As Sue settles into village life, she re-evaluates what she wants from life. But when Interpol takes an interest in a client’s problems, Sue realises that accountancy can sometimes be more exciting than expected.

Between unexpected romance, a web of financial intrigue, and the shocking truth about Dave’s “self-discovery,” Sue must decide: is she ready to let go of the past and take a leap into the unknown?

A heartwarming, gentle rom-com about fresh starts, second chances, and discovering that life—and love—are full of surprises.
