Publisher's Synopsis
Dahlia, a globe-trotting language teacher, inherits an enormous old house in Wales. She's never had any interest in putting down roots or being a landlord. And walking in on her new tenant naked changes nothing, right?
Thomas Omari loves his adopted home town and fully intends to raise a family and stay forever. Then his generous landlady dies and his girlfriend leaves him, all in the same week.
Desperate to keep his student boarding house afloat, he offers to help Dahlia fix the place up. A rebound is one thing, but soon it's like playing happy families: cozy domesticity and stolen kisses, quirky teenagers and the undeniable satisfaction of freshly painted window sills. One minute Dahlia's loving it, the next she wants to do what she always does-move on before anyone expects too much of her.
How do you leave when staying might be the real adventure?
