The Gift of Cockleberry Bay, Paperback

All our favorite characters from Cockleberry Bay are back in this final heartwarming story in the series--including Hot, Rosa Smith's adorable daschund and his newborn puppies. Now successfully running the Cockleberry Caf and wishing to start a family herself, Rosa feels the time is right to let her inherited corner shop go. However, her benefactor left her one important legal proviso: that the shop cannot be sold, only passed on to someone who really deserves it. Rosa is torn. How can she make such a huge decision? And will it be the right one? Once the news gets out, untrustworthy newcomers appear in the Bay, their motives uncertain. With the revelation of more secrets from Rosa's family heritage, a new journey of unpredictable and life-changing events begins to unfold.
