Charlie's furious when a burger truck begins trading in the country lane outside his strawberry farm and encroaches upon his business. What makes it worse is that the infuriating owner refuses to move, claiming he's found the perfect spot on the English coast to spend his summer.But when Charlie's friends from the city show up and are convinced that Tai, the bold American chef, and Charlie should be attracted to one another, the farmer is left with no option than to grudgingly go along with his friends' plans to set them up.His world is rapidly turned into bedlam when disaster strikes, forcing the reticent farmer to make a decision that will affect both his and Tai's summer, and will either bring them together or permanently drive them apart.Part of "Summer Bigger Than Others - A Summer Anthology" from Beaten Track Publishing. Many years ago, Victoria chose the words 'watch this space' to accompany her picture in the school yearbook and had no dreams of being a writer. Sixteen years later, after a friend joked that she should be an author, she began the first page of her very first novel and realised how perfect those words had been.As a latecomer to the world of creative writing, Victoria is now making up for lost time and enjoying every second of the experience.In the rare moments these days when she's not writing or dreaming up new plots, she can usually be found at either the ice rink or the dojo and all of these activities are done listening to loud music.Victoria would love to hear from anyone who shares her passion for writing; and in particular from anyone who has tips on how to tame the editing fetish she has unwittingly acquired along the way.
