One Hot Country Summer

Author(s): Rebecca Shaw

Fiction

When Kate worked at the Barleybridge Practice, she had thought herself in love with Scott. But that was years ago and she is over him now - or so she thinks. When she returns to the Practice, she is alarmed to discover that suddenly, yet again, she is completely besotted with him. Some things at the Practice have changed: there's a new vet, Virginia, who seems to go out of her way to criticise and upset Kate, not to mention upsetting the clients. But Virginia is not all she seems. Scott, very much in love with his wife Zoe, hates the idea that they have not yet had a second child. Convinced that the fault is not his, he refuses to seek help. The ensuing rows with Zoe drives a wedge between them. Will he look to someone else for comfort? Kate hopes that he might...
