This book is also known as: Flora's Lot
Book Description:
Flora Stanza has sub-let her London life in a bid to join the family antiques business. Her knowledge of antiques extends only to the relics of information she has crammed from frantic daytime TV watching, but what she lacks in experience she makes up for in blind enthusiasm. So she is more than a little put off when she doesn't receive the warm country welcome she expected. Her curt, conservative cousin Charles and his fiancee Annabelle are determined to send Flora packing, and their offer to buy out her recently inherited majority-share of the business is tempting...until a strange warning makes her think twice. Stuck with a cat about to burst with kittens, and keen to avoid a certain man back in London, Flora soon discovers country life can be anything but dull and sets about rebuilding the crumbling business...
This is a retired hardback library book, bought at a library sale in Woodstock, Georgia.

My Review: This was a fun read. Flora is a sort of a Bridget Jones character. She's a fish out of water, coming to live in the country to learn about her inheritance of an antique shop. Her distant cousin is Charles, he's stuffy, grumpy about change, and Flora is beautiful, full of enthusiasm. There are some fun characters.
