What would you risk in the search for real happiness? A year of your life?

Katherine thought she had life all figured out: a high-powered career, a fabulous fiancé and a wardrobe full of designer clothes. But when betrayal strikes at the heart of her seemingly perfect relationship, Katherine’s world crumbles.

And, when a distant relative dies and she finds she has inherited Butterfly Farm, a run-down animal sanctuary in Devon, she has a clear choice to make.

Sell it or save it? Sell it, of course, but legally she can’t : For a year.

Faced with a life-altering decision, Katie takes a leap of faith, leaving behind the glitz and glamour for a chance at redemption and fulfillment. The dilapidated sanctuary becomes her refuge, a place where she finds solace and purpose among the abandoned and mistreated animals.

As Katie throws herself into the challenge of saving the sanctuary, she discovers an unexpected ally in the form of her first innocent love, James Baker, now a rugged and conservative farmer. Together, they navigate the demanding world of animal rescue, mending broken lives and healing wounded hearts.

She comes to realise the farm, and the people she meets there, hold answers to a past she never knew and a life she never dreamed of.

Feelgood fiction that celebrates women, love and the importance of family
