To find true love, first you have to truly love yourself...Fleur French does not have the best of luck when it comes to life and love, and her current boyfriend Jasper is yet another person who only seems to like Fleur when she moulds herself into his idea of the perfect partner. So, when she finds herself single, jobless and homeless, Fleur has to decide if she's ready to finally be herself - if only she knew who that was.
Matt Morgan saw things he'll never forget when he was deployed in the military, but now back home in Wales, the recuperative powers of the stunning countryside are working their magic. And when Fleur takes a job at his mother's hotel, Matt senses she could benefit from that same magic - if only Fleur realised it too.
It's hard to be yourself, when you've never felt you quite fitted in. But with new days come new opportunities, and as Fleur begins to flourish and find out who she really is, her luck in love might be about to change too.
