Another Home –
Another Love is the fourth novel in the Home series, which started with Dreams
of Home when Steven Caraford was a young man returning from the war, desperate to start farming and be able to marry the girl he loves. It is
followed by A Home of Our Own and Heart
of the Home following his progress and that of his relations and friends.
Another Home- Another Love moves on to
the next generation with their different problems to overcome.
All my novels have a Scottish
farming background and I am wary of becoming repetitive and boring readers with
farming details so I am continually searching for a new angle or development.
In this fourth novel I have moved slightly to include some market gardening.
This, and a different publisher, are responsible for the change in the style of
the book jacket.

Another Love (blurb from cover)
Rosemary Palmer-Farr loves farming and animals and has spent
much of her childhood at Bengairney Farm with her dearest friends, the
Carafords. Now, as a young woman, she wants to prove herself a good business
woman by running the gardens of her father's dwindling estate. Her mother,
Catherine, is not impressed and wants her to make a good marriage. She looks
down on the Carafords because they are only tenant farmers.
When childhood friendship deepens into love Catherine takes
action and extracts a promise from Sam Caraford, calculated to keep them apart,
even if it costs their happiness. She throws Rosemary into the company of
eligible young gentlemen but Rosemary despises their attitudes and yearns for
Sam's love.

ReplyDeleteGreat to hear the next book is now available. I've passed on the news to Carol Hogarth of D&G Life.
ReplyDeleteGreat title....and a lovely book cover, Gwen. I'll ask my local library to get this one in - got to keep the libraries going, haven't we?
ReplyDeleteThank you Gill, Mary and Linda for helping me spread the word. I do so hate marketing so I really appreciate having you lovely friends to help me.
ReplyDeleteThat's good news, Gwen. I've finished reading Fairlyden and I loved it. A cracking story!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jenny. I am glad you enjoyed Fairlyden. I have just seen a review for AH_AL described as "sweet". I'm not sure whether that's good or not. So hard to judge ones own work.
