A tender small-town romance set in an English care home, where a shy carer longing for a family of her own meets a grieving single father. Gentle, emotionally rich contemporary romance of slow-burn love, healing and found family.
Love Grows In The Quietest Places.
Maria has built a quiet life caring for the elderly at Shepley House, her days filled with gentle routines and the wisdom of her favourite residents. But her shy heart longs for something more: a child of her own.
When secondary school teacher Paul brings his mother Rose to Shepley House, grief and guilt weigh heavy on his shoulders. A single father juggling heartbreak and the relentless demands of everyday life, he wants nothing more than a safe place for the woman who raised him.
Then his visits start to overlap with Maria's shifts. In the quiet corners of the care home, between shared smiles and long conversations, something neither of them planned begins to take root. Maria has spent years hiding her hopes. Paul has spent months holding his family together. Reaching for each other might be the bravest thing either has ever done.
For Love of Family is a heartwarming instalment in the McBride's series, for readers who love care-home settings, single-dad heroes, shy heroines and slow-burn small-town love. Perfect for fans of Jo Bartlett, Lucy Dillon and Sarah Morgan.
