She came to Scotland to feel safe. She never expected to feel alive again.

Keeping Distance by VEH Masters book cover image

When widowed Maddie’s controlling ex refuses to let their relationship end, she walks away from her London home, career and phone and travels north, determined not to be found.

Life on a remote sheep farm could not be further from the world she has left behind. Lambing season is relentless: bitter mornings, muddy pens, difficult births and newborn lambs needing round-the-clock care.

Yet amid the exhaustion, Maddie discovers friendship, purpose and a growing attraction to reserved farmer Cal.

For the first time in years, Maddie can imagine a future. But claiming it will require more than simply hiding from the past.

A compelling romantic suspense novel about escaping the past and finding a future, set against the dramatic backdrop of the Scottish countryside, perfect for readers of Jojo Moyes and Liane Moriarty.

“The descriptions of Scottish farming life are as vivid as the characters. A thoroughly enjoyable read.” — Andy Keeler
