Summer at the Little Duck Pond Cafe by Rosie Green ** Cover Reveal**
I am delighted to be taking part in the Cover Reveal for the second novella in Rosie Green's Little Duck Pond Cafe trilogy. There is also the added bonus that the first in the series: Spring at the Little Duck Pond Cafe is available from Amazon for free to coincide with this Cover Reveal. You can read my review here.
Before we see the cover, here's a little about Summer at the Little Duck Pond Cafe:
Jaz Winters stuck a pin in a map and fled to the village of
Sunnybrook, looking for a brand new life – and after a rocky start, it’s
beginning to look as if she made the right decision. Her blossoming friendship
with Ellie and Fen has seen her through some dark times, and she’s managed to
land two jobs – waitress at The Little Duck Pond Café and working as a weekend
tour guide at Brambleberry Manor, the country house that’s been in Fen’s family
for generations.
Sure, life isn’t
totally perfect. There’s the irritating know-it-all guy who keeps popping up on
her manor tours, for a start. He seems determined to get under Jaz’s skin
whether she likes it or not. But she supposes it’s a small price to pay for the
relative peace she’s found, living in Sunnybrook.
But just as Jaz is
beginning to think rosier times are on the horizon, a shock encounter looks set
to shatter her fragile happiness.
Will she be forced
to flee from Sunnybrook and everyone she’s grown so fond of? Or will she find
the strength to stand her ground and finally face up to the nightmares of the
past?
This novella is part of a trilogy:
Spring at The Little Duck Pond Café
Summer at The Little Duck Pond Café
Winter at The Little Duck Pond Café

About the Author
Rosie Green has been scribbling stories ever since she was
little. Back then they were rip-roaring adventure tales with a young heroine in
perilous danger of falling off a cliff or being tied up by ‘the baddies’.
Thankfully, Rosie has moved on somewhat, and now much prefers to write romantic
comedies that melt your heart and make you smile, with really not much perilous
danger involved at all, unless you count the heroine losing her heart in love.
Rosie’s brand new
series of novellas is centred on life in a village café. Summer at The Little
Duck Pond Café, published on 18th June 2018, follows the first in the series,
Spring at The Little Duck Pond Café.
