Return to Willow Tree Cottage - Elise Darcy

Life takes you unexpected places, love brings you home. Lexi has left her old life in America behind. She is living on the beautiful Suffolk Coast with a new job and a new man in her life, the mysterious Scott, her neighbour next door. But everything is not what it seems. Scott, a single parent to an outspoken ten-year-old, harbours a secret. They don't settle anywhere for long, always on the move, and on the run; that's what his daughter, Charlie, confided in Lexi one day. Scott isn't the only one with something to hide. Lexi's new life is built on a lie. She had returned to England with a sealed letter from her late mother with instructions to deliver it in person to a reclusive writer. Lexi finds herself squatting in the writer's houseboat, awaiting her return, until by chance she discovers the writer is not in London as she has been led to believe, but living locally in a house called Willow Tree Cottage. Margot hasn't written in years. Once a best-selling author, a devastating event from her past haunts her. Unbeknown to her friends, she returns to her cottage every summer to nurse a broken heart. But this summer is going to be like no other, and when Margot comes face to face with the person squatting on her houseboat, both their lives will change forever. Book 6 in The Sunrise Coast Series is best enjoyed following on from Book 5 – The Houseboat by the Quay.
