A funny, sharply observed contemporary love story from the author of Coming Alive Beth is headmistress of a school in Devon, one that has just been successfully inspected by Ofsted. At the peak of her career, comfortably single and with enough money to enjoy herself, life looks good. In theory.

Within days Emma has set her sights on the only eligible batchelor in the neighbourhood, an organic farmer named Conrad who also happens to be a fading rock-star - and idol of Beth's own teenage years.
