The Mandeville Shadow: Totally heartbreaking and unputdownable timeslip historical fiction
""Bewitching! I was so into this series that I lost track of time… Everything was perfect - emotions, heartbreak, drama and long-lost memories." Reader review, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1935. Kate Durrant is helping her mother move out of the little cottage her parents used to share, until her father's heartbreaking death. Full of guilt that she couldn't visit her dad in his last moments, Kate now has only memories for company. Memories and… something else. Since she was a small child, Kate has been able to see and feel the history of objects she touches. She's always kept her gift secret, not knowing fully what it is, or how far it goes. One evening, while visiting her father's grave, Kate wanders into the shadowy woods behind the church. Following the mossy paths, she realises she's lost her way just as she stumbles upon the wrought-iron gates of Hill House, home to the illustrious Mandeville family. Welcomed in and offered a position on the staff as a housemaid, Kate discovers that all is not right within the walls of the splendid manor house. As her gift begins to unspool the history of the Mandeville's home, she realises that an unspeakable tragedy is fated to befall the family heir. Kate also grows increasingly close to Bertie Morrison, the Estate Manager who has known Hill House his whole life. With the family oblivious to their desperate peril, Bertie helps Kate understand her deepening connection to the Mandevilles. With Halloween approaching - when the veil between worlds is at its thinnest - a special visitor from the house's past appears just as a shadow falls over Hill House.

Jilted on her wedding day by her fiancE, she has little interest in looking for love again. She spends most of her time hiding away in her cosy cottage, snuggling on the sofa with her two cats and trying to find the energy to invest in her online craft business. Widower Ethan Morris has been drifting from job to job since he lost his wife, unable to commit to anything for long. He's returned to Sunflower Street to stay with his ailing mother and is secretly glad to have an excuse to go home. His mother suggests that he puts his manual skills to good use by starting his own painting and decorating business. The glorious spring sunshine reveals all the areas of Lila's cottage that are in need of maintenance, as well as a good spring clean, and her friends suggest that she hires someone to do the work. At first, Lila is reluctant, having kept things the same since her fiancE left, but she has to admit that a fresh lick of paint on the walls and some more shelves for her books would be nice. When a flier advertising a new local painter and decorator lands on Lila's doormat, it seems like fate has made the decision for her. As Ethan works his magic on Lila's cottage, and spring brings hope and renewal to Sunflower Street, is it possible that there could be a new beginning in store for Lila and Ethan too?

He comes up with a plan to try to make things better, but the secrecy required to carry it out creates its own problems. As summer descends upon Sunflower Street, with warmer days spent at the recently refurbished lido and lighter evenings whiled away, surrounded by roses and honeysuckle in their lovely garden, matters come to a head. It's time for the truth to be revealed, and for grievances — both old and new — to be aired. Will summer on Sunflower Street bring Roxie and Fletcher closer together or will it tear them apart?"
