A Yorkshire Affair

A warm and heartfelt story with all the northern Yorkshire charm! Perfect for fans of Cathy Bramley, Jo Bartlett and Jenny Colgan.

Jess Allen has always played it safe.

She married her high school sweetheart, stayed in her hometown and lives right next door to her mum Lisa and younger sister Sorrel. But with a new job on the horizon and her family no longer living a stone s throw away, she s going to have to get used to her comfortable life shifting into something new.

Jess finds the idea of being a part of the White House the village s new and stylish restaurant incredibly daunting, but she knows she is more than capable. And with her role at the care home uncertain, this would give her the chance to finally pursue her passion for cooking.

But as her professional life soars, her romantic life is thrown into turmoil. Having welcomed back into her life her no-good ex, she's quickly questioning her decision especially as new faces in Beddingfield begin to catch her eye.

As the familiar rhythms of life shift and long-held routines are upended, she starts to see that sometimes change is no bad thing at all. And someone who encourages her to take a risk even if it's the last person she ever expected might be just the thing she needed.

Heartfelt, warm and humorous, this is the third book in Julie Houston s Beddingfield series.
