Picnics and Promises at Strawberry Fields

Every book in the Birch Tree Farm series can be read as a STANDALONE.

It's pick-your-own season at Strawberry Fields, and a fake dating scheme is afoot... ✨

Daisy Connor never thought she'd be here on her wedding day, but after ditching her fiancé at the altar, she’s fled to Birch Tree Farm for some much-needed thinking room. Her cousin Willow's farmhouse is the last place Daisy truly remembers being happy – and herself.

Blake Daniels is nursing his own broken heart after discovering his girlfriend’s betrayal, and he’s retreated to the same quiet farm for solitude, hoping to figure out his next move.

With the strawberry pick-your-own season upcoming, there's no shortage of things to do to keep their anxious minds distracted but the last thing Daisy and Blake expect to see on the farm are their exes, turning up uninvited, demanding a second chance.

It's a split-second decision, but it seems to make sense at the time: if Daisy and Blake fake a relationship, it'll get the two of them off their backs. But what starts as a harmless cover story soon gets complicated. And as sparks fly, lines begin to blur. Is this just pretend, or could something real be growing between them?
