Happiness for Beginners

**Molly Baker is living her best life.**

Thirty-eight years old, she lives on the twenty-five-acre **Hope Farm** in

Buckinghamshire, surrounded by (mostly) four-legged friends and rolling hills.

There's Anthony the anti-social sheep, Tina Turner the alpaca with attitude,

and the definitely-not-miniature pig, Teacup.

Molly runs the farm as an alternative school for kids who haven't thrived in

mainstream education. It's full on, but she wouldn't have it any other way. So

when the well-groomed Shelby Dacre turns up at Hope Farm asking to enrol his

son Lucas, Molly isn't fazed.

But Lucas is distant and soon Molly realises he might be more of a handful

than she anticipated. And then there's the added problem that his dad is

distractingly handsome. Molly has her beloved farm to think of - could letting

Lucas and Shelby in be a terrible mistake, or the start of something

wonderful?
