House Beneath the Cliffs

A heartbroken chef without a kitchen. A village in the shadow of a cliff threatening to fall. A tiny stone shed clinging to a wild and lonely shore.

When Anna arrives in Crovie, a fishing village in the Moray Firth, she immediately thinks she's made a terrible mistake. After twenty years of standing in the shadow of ex-boyfriend Geoff's ascending star as a celebrity chef, she needs a fresh start, but why did she think she could find that here, in a home the size of a shoebox in a place she has no roots? Yet as Anna begins to learn the Scottish coast and its people, something in her she'd thought she'd lost reawakens. It's not just about re-discovering her love of cooking and the surprising popularity of her mini pop-up lunch club, either.

There's the happy-go-lucky Kiwi who's going home at the end of the season. There's the tragic handsome widower (and his dolphin-obsessed son) whom Anna is definitely never going to think about in that way ever. There's the group of firm friends who welcome her with open arms.

Perhaps, after all, Anna's tiny home can be lucky for more than just the herring lassie who first lived there. As long as nothing happens to disturb Anna's fragile new beginning...
