The Year of Yes and No
A picture paints a thousand words, but sometimes you just need one.
1802 Colchester Hall, Northumberland. Harriet Colchester has been invisible all her life - a dutiful daughter, wife, and now, a dutiful widow.
Inheriting her husband's fortune gives Harriet a freedom she has only dreamt of. Now wealthy, she can say yes whenever she chooses – but only if she remains unmarried.
Battling her ingrained sense of duty, her conniving mother-in-law, and her growing feelings for long-time confidante Alexander leaves Harriet with an agonising choice – freedom, or love.
Which will she say ‘yes’ to?
2023 London. Gabriella Sullivan’s job at a London art gallery pays the bills, but being her family's default administrator, cook and babysitter is what drains her energy.
When she stumbles upon Regency miniatures of Harriet Colchester, she's fascinated by the differences in the portraits – one deferential, the other devil-may-care.
Determined to find out more, Gabriella runs straight into Hugo, the large, chocolate-voiced owner of the miniatures.
Can the miniatures help Gabriella ‘Be More Harriet’, get control of her life and say 'no' to her family's endless demands?

A Bouquet of White Roses
​
Florist Dawn Andrews’ business is to create beautiful bouquets, not to break up relationships. But when she’s asked to arrange the flowers for the wedding of an old school friend, it’s hard to ignore her budding feelings.
Dawn is the loveliest woman that landscape gardener Sam Winterson has ever seen. But as an engaged man, he dismisses the growing chemistry between them.
Until, that is, Sam has to rescue Dawn from an assault outside a nightclub. While he’s only doing what any honourable man would, Sam finds himself caring rather too much about the florist with the heart-shaped face and sherry-brown eyes.
With the wedding only five months away, can they dismiss their mutual attraction and carry on as ‘just friends’?
