A grumpy recluse. A sunshine disaster. One manor house full of ghosts.
When Charlie Porter returns to her sleepy Yorkshire village, it's not by choice. Her London café has crumbled, her bank account is weeping, and her gran has just volunteered her to care for the town’s most notoriously miserable man.
Colonel Theo Ashford is a war hero, a recluse, and a complete pain in the arse. His manor is crumbling, his routine is sacred, and he likes his life exactly how it is: silent. Until Charlie bursts in—armed with pink hair, zero boundaries, and a very loud vacuum cleaner.
He wants her gone. She’s too bright, too bold, too full of life. But she’s also the first person to talk back, to scrub his floors, to see past the wheelchair and the scowl and call him out on his bullshit.
Charlie swore she wasn’t going to fall for a grumpy ex-soldier with a tragic backstory and arms built for sin. But somewhere between clearing the greenhouse and late-night arguments in the library, she finds herself caring far too much.
He thinks she deserves the world. She thinks he's worth saving.
But love isn't always enough—especially when your past is determined to ruin your future.
Genre: Romance
