When a billionaire and his assistant bring change to the village, Michael has to adapt… The future’s uncertain for Michael Fleming. He came to the sleepy Yorkshire village of Napthwaite a year ago as Thorpe Hall’s gardener, but now the Hall’s been sold…to billionaire hotelier Darryl Burlington. When self-made Darryl and his handsome French assistant, François Vernier, come to set up the new property acquisition, they plan to find a willing third party to share their bed. Darryl and François aren’t together, but they like to celebrate success. But instead of indulging themselves in a treat after their hard work, they trigger events which no one could have foreseen. This chain reaction Darryl, François and Michael leads to big changes in Napthwaite—and in all three men’s lives… Reader advisory: This book contains instances of homophobia, and the deaths of a character and an animal.
