Could an abandoned cottage be the key to a life she never dreamed possible?
After her mother unexpectedly passes away, nineteen-year-old Ada finds herself on her own with little idea what to do next. When she learns from her solicitor that she has inherited a cottage she knows nothing about, she is initially reluctant to start over in an unfamiliar place. But with dwindling funds and no employment prospects, her situation is far from ideal. Aware she has little choice; Ada begins to wonder whether Beaumont Cottage might be the best place to search for answers to the questions she has about her mother's past and her own future.
In picturesque Sunshine Valley, she encounters unforeseen setbacks, wonderful new friendships, and a comforting sense of belonging. But Ada's quest to learn more about her mother brings fresh awareness of the things she has long been missing in her own life.
Meanwhile, she crosses paths with two decidedly different young men. Which one of them will win her heart? In the end, Ada discovers that life has a funny way of working out exactly the way it's meant to.
Found family, whimsical sentiment, a cozy small-town setting, and a delightful cast of characters ensure you won't soon forget Ada's story.
A nostalgic debut novel featuring a heroine with the fanciful imagination of Anne Shirley, and the mystery-loving sensibilities of Nancy Drew, Beaumont Cottage will inevitably warm your heart.
