Duck Pond Cottage

The BRAND NEW instalment in Della Galton's heartwarming Duck Pond Cottage series Can love conquer all? Jade and Finn are idyllically happy in their little corner of rural Wiltshire. A rescue centre jampacked with animals keeps them super busy. With Finn's art going from strength to strength, Jade can't believe they're living the dream until an arrogant property developer with questionable motives jeopardises their perfect lives and the future plans of the rescue centre. Jade and Finn both have trust issues and they've promised there'll be no more secrets. But keeping promises is harder than either of them imagined, especially where Finn's past is concerned. Living with Mr Spock the potty-mouthed parrot and Mickey the dog who barks at TV baddies there's never a dull moment at Duck Pond Rescue. But will the humans get their 'happy-ever-after' too? Can they lay the ghosts of the past to rest and find a bright new future together?

A story of love, second chances and the wonderful start of a BRAND NEW series from Della Galton featuring Duck Pond Lane Animal Rescue. It's not just animals who need to be rescued... Following the unexpected death of her mother, and the breakdown of her relationship, animal loving idealist Jade Foster, uses her inheritance to buy a smallholding in the beautiful Wiltshire countryside hoping to realise her dream of providing a sanctuary for unloved animals in need of a new home. Jade employs the enigmatic Finn McTaggart to help out at Duck Pond Lane Rescue and forms a friendship with both Finn and her local Vet, Aiden Southerland. But Finn is running from his own demons and Aiden longs for a more romantic relationship with broken-hearted Jade. Romance is not on the cards for Jade, but as both men fall for her natural beauty, the rivalry between them hots up. But can any of them heal enough to find lasting love? What none of them realise is that a devastating secret from the past has the power to destroy the present and that love, however wonderful, isn't always enough. Perfect for romantics and animals lovers alike - If you love Jessica Redland, Alison Sherlock and Sarah Hope you'll adore Della...
