The Highland Repair Shop is a place where anything can be fixed… from vintage radios and rusting bikes to hearts and lives.
Euan Sparks is back in town, newly self-employed and newly mortified after a disastrous first job threatens his fledgling electrician business. Can he prove that he belongs in Cairn Dhu?
Peaches McDowell is a gifted fashion student on the brink of her Master’s showcase. She’s focused, ambitious and bound tightly within the expectations of her formidable mother. Romance is a distraction she can’t afford. But when a crisis throws Peaches and Euan together at the repair shop, a spark is ignited…
Meanwhile, repair shop founder’s wife Roz McIntyre is also facing a turning point: a marriage in need of attention, an empty nest and the worrying question of what comes next.
As the Beltane fire festival approaches and the town prepares for its wild and wonderful spring celebrations, can Peaches, Euan, Roz – and her husband – find the courage to let sparks fly?
A life-affirming and romantic story, set against a spirited small community, crackling bonfires and the magic of a Highland May Day.
Every book in the Highland Repair Shop series can be read as a standalone.
