Queen of Tarts 1 (Paperback or Softback)

Queenie had no idea why she suffered from the Caledonian Curse at Halloween. Maybe a move to a charming, remodelled church would help. Then she met the Fixer...

Since her parents became grey nomads, Queenie Hart was just about alone in the world. Her strange obsession with all things Scottish in the weeks before Halloween was ruining her life. While in the grip of the Caledonian Curse, she insulted people and spent money she couldn’t afford on bagpipe serenades. She turned down a date with her perfect man, angered her employers, and pushed her landlady into giving her notice. She, and her little baking business Queen of Tarts, would soon be homeless.

Queenie’s luck changed when her dad’s odd cousin found her a rent-free home for three months. The Belfry was a converted church, and Queenie was soon embroiled with the attractive but married landlord, and a man she knew as the Fixer. The Fixer helped her whenever she needed... but Halloween was coming, Caledonia was calling, and it was so the wrong time be starting on a new romance.
