Katie Fforde’s 15th - yes, 15th - novel, Love Letters, is due out next month on June 4th and the synopsis reads:

With the bookshop where she works about to close, Laura Horsley, in a moment of uncharacteristic recklessness, finds herself agreeing to help organize a literary festival deep in the heart of the English countryside. But her initial excitement is rapidly followed by a mounting sense of panic when reality sinks in and she realizes just how much work is involved - especially when an innocent mistake leads the festival committee to mistakenly believe that Laura is a personal friend of the author at the top of their wish-list.

Laura might have been secretly infatuated with the infamous Dermot Flynn ever since she studied him at university, but traveling to Ireland to persuade the notorious recluse to come out of hiding is another matter. Determined to rise to the challenge she sets off to meet her literary hero. But all too soon she’s confronted with more than she bargained for - Dermot the man is maddening, temperamental and up to his ears in a nasty case of writer’s block. But he’s also infuriatingly attractive - and, apparently, out to add Laura to his list of conquests…

I love the sound of it and I love Katie Fforde’s books. I have almost all of her novels bar Living Dangerously and Flora’s Lot and have Wild Designs and Wedding Season to-read. Once I get the chance I’ll re-read Katie’s books and review them. Check back soon for an interview with Katie.
