May is the month for falling in love . . .

Hattie Carrington's first love was as unusual as it was out of reach - Dominic Forbes was a married MP, and she was his assistant. She has never told anyone about it. And never really got over it.

But years later with a flourishing antiques business and enjoying a fling with a sexy, younger man, she thinks her past is finally well and truly behind her.

Until work takes her to Little Crandon, home of Dominic's widow and his gorgeous younger brother, Hal. There, Hattie's world is turned upside down. She learns that if she's to truly fall in love again she needs to stop hiding from the truth. Can she ever admit what really happened back then?

And, if so, is she ready for the consequences?
