Small town romance

By: Susan Mackie

Narrated by: Lucy Goleby

Meggie Hamilton is loving small town life in Barrington, but sometimes it's a juggling act.

Her relationship with veterinarian Max Masters is developing and she's keen to spend more time with him. A lot more time. But she has an exciting new business, and needs to get it off the ground to leverage a niche opportunity.
Max and young son Tommy are building relationships within the community, not least of these with Meggie. Max admires her creativity and work ethic, but wonders if she can make room in her life for him and his son. Her brother Angus is Max's business partner, and a wrong move with Meggie could jeopardise that.
And then there's Meggie's posse; sister-in-law Rose, business colleague Harriet, cafe owner Debbie, and Melanie who runs the admin at the vet clinic, who all hold strong opinions.
The girl-talk will have you laughing-crying.
Small towns are busy, and Barrington is no exception. Someone close to Meggie has a secret health issue, and Max finds himself supporting an elderly client and his family through a serious illness.
With so much going on, will they find a way to move forward together?
