Jemima 'Mim' Dewberry thought landing her dream job at Yorkshire Portions magazine was a dream come true. However, working there hasn't lived up to her expectations. When two new employees arrive; Caspar De Verre and Honey Blossom Blenkinsop, one instantly sends her heart racing, while the other is a reminder of a broken heart she suffered. When items begin to go missing in the office, Mim's shocked to find someone is trying to frame her. In addition, her new beau has a strange request. Thankfully, her friends are close by to help her work everything out and to make her realise what she always wanted, has been there all along.
This novel has a little bit of everything, mystery, deceit, lies and romance, as Mim's work life becomes more chaotic than it usually is. Aidey and Anna-Lisa are her close friends and allies at Yorkshire Portions who loyally help to protect her against their volatile employer, Catherine. Herbert, her four-legged friend is an equally loyal companion and an exquisite judge of character. With humour, despair, heartbreak and hope, There's a heart-warming happy ending, and promises of new beginnings.
One aspect I adore about Ms Scott's novels is their settings. The backdrop for this one is York, a city I know well and one I haven't had a chance of visiting in a long while. I enjoy the familiarity of revisiting a favourite place whilst getting to know the endearing characters who live and work there.
To sum up, Tell That To My Heart is a sterling start in what promises to be a delightful series.
