Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the best-selling author of Escape to the French Farmhouse comes a deliciously feel-good new story....

Eliza has a full house! When her three children grew up and moved out, she downsized to a smaller property...but now they're all back. Every room in the house is taken and Eliza finds herself sharing her bed with her eldest daughter and her daughter's pug. Combined with the online course she's trying to finish, plus her job to fit in, there just isn't the peace and quiet that Eliza needs.

So when an ad pops up on her laptop saying 'house-sitters wanted', Eliza can't resist the chance to escape. She ends up moving to a rural finca in Southern Spain, looking after the owner's Iberico pigs, learning about secret gastronomic societies...and finding a new zest for life and love along the way.

Charming story & loveable village

A lovely way to spend time listening. People I would like to know except for the black marketers.

Moral Dilemma For Me

The storyline of this book was interesting enough to keep my attention for several hours, but a problem I find in many cases is before I buy a book, I read all reviews looking for warnings from other readers to see if there is a moral issue or tons of foul language and if I see that I will not buy the book. It is for this reason that I am writing this review in case you have similar values. I understand this is a sensitive topic and everyone has a right to choose how they want to live. I would never force my beliefs on anyone else, but I do ask for the same respect in return. For those not comfortable with a romantic relationship between two men or two women then I would advise against this book as there is a male bartender that she is helping set up romantically with another man. So, although I found the storyline interesting, I opted to return this title because of this conflict with my own personal Bible based values.
