Description
Ella Norton has opted for the simple life. Gone are the power suits, the high earnings and the high stress of city life - and instead she's got her own cottage, a course in horticulture, and a crush on her dynamic tutor Matt.
But life isn't all rustic paradise - Ella has two lodgers - gorgeous, worldly Miranda and unglamorous, naive Faith - who can't stand each other. And then there's the matter of Matt's wife and the fact that something dodgy and possibly illegal seems to be going on next door.
When the police arrive and set up a stakeout in Ella's bedroom, things begin to spiral seriously out of control...
