What this book is about
Minerva Highwood has spent years cataloguing fossils in the Surrey hills, dreaming of presenting her findings to the Royal Geological Society in Edinburgh. When she approaches the village's most notorious rake, Colin Sandhurst, with an outrageous proposition — travel together as fake betrothed — she sets off a fortnight that will change both of them. Dare's second Spindle Cove novel is celebrated for its witty dialogue, genuine emotional depth, and a heroine who is bookish, prickly, and wholly lovable.
