Pia Temple has always had a soft spot for Jackson Moody following a passionate teenage love affair that burnt out over one long summer, more than ten years ago. First loves can be hard to forget, and the devastatingly gorgeous Jackson, is harder to forget than most.
After putting aside her ambitions while she cared for her parents, it is finally time for Pia to think about herself. So, when she’s offered the perfect job running the social calendar at Primrose Hall, with a dreamy flat included, how can she refuse? There’s only one problem… The new owner of the refurbished seventeenth-century manor house set in the idyllic Primrose Woods, is none other than Jackson, the man she’s thought about every day for years.
In a whirl of weddings and craft fairs, literary festivals and tea parties, Pia blossoms in her new role. But with the delectable Jackson a daily distraction, maybe this isn’t the dream job after all – especially when Jackson’s unfeasibly beautiful ex-girlfriend Tara, comes back to visit the hall…

My Review
Pia forgo her future to take care of her parent. Now that they are no longer around and her family home is sold, she need to find a job and a home for herself. She found her answer when she saw a job advert from Primrose Hall, recently refurbished by the new owner and now the owner is looking for a personal assistant. It’s a live in position and pay is great but there is an issue. The owner is Jackson whom broke her heart after a perfect summer long ago and he left town without a word. With Bertie, her four legged companion, Pia settled well in Primrose Hall with Jackson nearby. The story then follows Pia as she adjusts to living at Primrose Hall. With Jackson’s presence nearby, it evoke their long ago romance.
This is a story of 2nd chance in love and I Love the storyline very much; with the easy flow and engaging story. Jackson come across as handsome, caring, sensitive and protective while Pia is a lovely character with her confident and big heart. The interaction between them have a slow burn vibe to it. Overall, it is a heartwarming read to me.
