Owner Algy isn't getting any younger, and Daisy's mum Janet, housekeeper at the manor, spends her days running around after him, while Daisy's dad Robin, the gardener, has been let down by the person he had lined up to take care of the new cut-flower garden.As Daisy tries to find her place at Wynbrook and in the village, she's drawn to summer visitor Josh. But when he turns out to be not the person he appears to be, will the spark between them fizzle out? And with it, the chances of this turning into the best summer ever?
