One fine day in May, Hattie's life changes for ever... Single mother Hattie has plenty of reasons to be happy. Her antiques business is flourishing, her teenage son is settled at boarding school and she's enjoying a fling with a younger, very sexy man. But when her job takes her back to the idyllic village of Little Crandon, painful memories of her first love - Dominic Forbes, the married politician she worked for years ago, the man who changed the course of her life - come flooding back... Things come to a head when Hattie bumps into Dominic's widow and his gorgeous younger brother, Hal, in the village and she finds her world turned upside down. Will Hattie come clean about what really happened with Dominic all those years ago? And, if she does, is she ready to face the consequences? Whatever happens, Hattie comes to realize that you can't keep running from your mistakes. It's time to move on and maybe, just maybe, let herself fall in love again...

Well I was disappointed in this. Normally I find Alliott's books good fun but from the start I had my doubts. I didn't warm to any of the characters & Hattie herself wasn't a particularly credible character - the whole adoption thing (which admittedly would be very admirable in real life) didn't ring true although the tale leading up to it was much more serious than is usual in this style of book, & indeed for this author. Otherwise, it was predictable (it was so, so obvious that a part received text was going to have some "vital" significance *yawn*), an unrealistic tale but neither out-&-out escapism. Not one of her best.....
