Viac o knihe

Island house off coast of Maine, with private beach, sea views and the occasional farmyard animal, seeks super swanky Central London penthouse overlooking Holland Park, complete with concierge service and spurned ex-lovers...When thirty-somethings Cassie and James find each other on a home swap website, it feels meant to be. City hotshot James needs a bolthole after a relationship goes sour and Cassie needs to leave the comfort of her little island to research her new book.Soon, James is living in Cassie's cute but ramshackle beachside cottage, and Cassie's living in James's luxurious London apartment. It's the perfect solution.Except James didn't imagine he'd be sharing his home with eleven chickens and three alpacas, not to mention the unusually friendly neighbours, who seem to find any excuse to drop by. And Cassie is less than impressed when James's ex-girlfriend turns up at his door (more than once), demanding to know where he's gone.The more Cassie and James talk, the more the tension between them mounts. But as the insults fly so do the sparks, and when the time finally comes to swap back, Cassie and James find they aren't quite ready to give each other up.But there's more than just distance between them—and when Cassie makes a surprising discovery, the pair are forced to confront their feelings and decide what kind of life they really want.
