Storybook ending : a novel
Alexander, Poppy2024
Book
In her books she can write 'happily ever after'- but real life? That's another matter. For children's book author Imogen, an idyllic life in the English countryside seems like the perfect fit for her and her husband. But when tragedy strikes, Imogen is left widowed, and finds herself moving into Storybook Cottage alone with only her monstrously narcissistic cat for company. After discovering she is pregnant, Imogen grows determined to embrace a new start in Middlemass, with its duckpond, cricket matches and village fêtes. The only thing Imogen can't seem to shake is her neighbour - a brooding, artisan blacksmith named Gabriel - who she can't quite decide is friend or foe. That is until she realises, thanks to an arcane clause in her deeds, that Gabriel - not just an artist, but lord of the local manor house - has the power to take her home and leave her completely broke.
