Description
Ice-cold drinks, summer sun and colourful characters â€" welcome to the perfect village pub! Nestled in the quiet countryside sits the cosy village of Little Monkham, home of The Star and Sixpence, a renovated pub owned by sisters Sam and Nessie. As the locals welcome the new season, it appears that change is afoot in their tiny community, and not all of it for the better . . .
Nessie is moving in with her boyfriend, leaving Sam alone in the pub. But with the arrival of new chef Gabriel causing a flutter among the women of the village, it seems that Sam might not be so lonely after all. Having just recently come out of a relationship, Sam's attraction to Gabe is inconvenient, but that's the least of her worries when an unexpected visitor arrives at the pub, determined to stir up trouble.
As Gabe and Sam grow closer, Little Monkham's latest arrival threatens to reveal a secret that will turn more than one world upside down. Can Sam and Nessie work through the fall out, or is it really last orders at The Star and Sixpence?
The brand new novel from Holly Hepburn, author of A Year at the Star and Sixpence, perfect for fans of Cathy Bramley and Jenny Colgan. ~*~Praise for the STAR AND SIXPENCE series~*~

Rowan Coleman '
Warm,
witty and
laced with intriguing secrets! I want to pull up a bar stool, order a large G&T and soak up all the gossip at the Star and Sixpence!'
Cathy Bramley 'You'll fall in love with this

Miranda Dickinson 'The Star and Sixpence sparkles with
fun,
romance, mystery, and
a hunky blacksmith. It's a real
delight'
Julie Cohen 'Like the dream pub landlady who always knows exactly what you want, Holly Hepburn has created the most
delightful welcome to what promises to be a
brilliant series, in the first Star and Sixpence. The sisters are
warm and intriguing, the neighbours are (mostly!) friendly and
the gossip is utterly addictive. I was very sad when it was time for last orders, and am already looking forward to the next round. Especially if a certain blacksmith happens to be at the bar...'
