can be as sweet as strawberries... Hannah Beety never thought she'd be back working at her family's strawberry farm, but when her mother falls ill, she knows it's time to go home. Returning to help in time for the summer harvest, Hannah's forced to face up to the broken hearts she left behind... After a decade, Grey Walker cannot believe that the woman he had planned to marry, start a family and live a cosy life with is back.
