Story
Folk singer Cerys Davies left Wales for the South Downs village of Padcock at Christmas, desperate for a new beginning. And she ends up having plenty of those: opening a new craft shop-tea room, helping set up the village's first festive craft fair and, of course, falling desperately in love with Sam, the owner of the local pub. It's just too bad he's firmly in the clutches of awful Belinda.

Zach has his reasons for leaving Hollywood behind, and his retreat to the remote village of Polcarne in Cornwall signals the start of a new acting free life for him.

Story
Nessa Vivian is determined to keep her parents' business afloat, but Pear Tree Farm near the backwater Cornish village of Polgarth didn't do well as farm, and it's not faring much better as a camp site. Maybe it’s due to Nessa's habit of taking in troubled runaways, like ex-soldier Crispin, for next to nothing. Or perhaps her highly strung sister, Lowena, is right - caravans named after Beatles' songs and homegrown pears are not enough to turn the farm into a tourist haven.

Publisher's Summary
Soundings and Choc Lit present the audio edition of Edie's Summer of New Beginnings.
Edie Brinkley went from rising star on the London art scene to hiding out at her gran's cottage in the little village of Padcock after a series of unfortunate circumstances leave her almost too panicky to pick up a paintbrush.
When celebrity artist Ninian Chambers rocks up in the village to film Watercolour Wonders, a new TV art competition, Edie is horrified—especially as he played no small part in her decision to leave London. But, with the support of the Padcock community, and one very special fellow contestant, could Ninian's show ultimately offer a fresh start for Edie and her art career? Or will Annabel the sixties' style stealer, along with make-up artist Tallulah and her 'Caravan of Hell', sabotage her summer of new beginnings?
