PREORDER the BRAND NEW atmospheric, feel-good romantic read from Lisa Hobman's Scottish Highland series.What would you wish for if you had one chance?Esme Cassidy had two dreams growing up: to be a famous film star, and to own Drumblair Castle.Sadly, overly cautious parents put paid to a career in front of the camera, instead encouraging her to study towards a 'proper job', and Lady Olivia MacBain is the current custodian of 'her castle'.After graduating and a year travelling, Esme returns home broken-hearted and throws herself into her new role as Lady Olivia's PA at Drumblair Castle. It's not quite her original dream but at least she's living at the castle in one of the estate cottages with her housemate and friend, handsome, yet quirky, groundsman Judd.With the news that the castle will be used as a film set for a period movie, Esme gets to witness first-hand the career she missed out on.
