Description

In this irresistible novel, an Englishman from the Cotswolds and a California girl get a second chance at love… Gut wrenching and emotional, Bourton Bridge is for romance lovers.

Luke is no stranger to hardship, yet he hides it well. Throwing himself into his work as a restaurant chef in the quaint Cotswolds village of Bourton Bridge, he keeps busy, which suits him just fine as he heals his broken heart.

A world away in a suburb of Los Angeles, Jade is trapped in a troubled marriage. For her daughter’s sake, she puts on a brave face, determined to live up to her vows. When her husband’s shady business dealings lead to the purchase of a dilapidated farmhouse in England, Jade reluctantly follows, bound by duty.

With the property situated down the lane from the restaurant, Luke and Jade meet. Amidst their interactions, Luke discerns the subtle traces of Jade's hidden suffering. In turn, she recognizes a pain that he has buried deep within himself. 

When a twist of fate casts Jade into uncertainty, she must summon the courage to contemplate an unknown future in Bourton Bridge. As Luke becomes better acquainted with Jade, he recalls his life five years earlier and the love he lost. Together, they navigate the delicate bridge of their pasts and the possibility of a second chance at love.

Told in dual timelines amidst the picturesque backdrop of the English Cotswolds, Bourton Bridge is a tale of resilience, inviting readers on a journey where fate and destiny collide with romance.

In this irresistible novel, an Englishman from the Cotswolds and a California girl get a second chance at love… Gut wrenching and emotional, Bourton Bridge is for romance lovers.

Luke is no stranger...

Luke and Jade, both with a troubled past and present, meet and begin to heal each other. He is grieving his loved one who died in an accident, and suffering from an abusive father. Jade is married with a young child, and also suffers physical and mental abuse from her husband. Liked this one, but heartbreaking at times. Still though, a hard book to put down and would recommend.

Bourton Bridge by Mia Fox is a poignant and heartfelt tale of healing, second chances, and personal growth. Set in the picturesque Cotswolds, the story follows Luke, a chef recovering from heartbreak, and Jade, a woman trapped in an unhappy marriage. Their paths cross when Jade moves to England, and despite their own struggles, they find solace in each other’s pain. Through their evolving relationship, both characters are forced to confront their pasts and embrace the possibility of a new future. A touching exploration of love, resilience, and the transformative power of human connection.

Yes please. I knew I wanted to read this. I knew I'd love it if done as well as I wished it for from the cover and blurb. I can happily say it was perfect.
My favourite books are saga esque...proper good deep books. Rosamund Pilcher stole my heart and starred that off and I'll forever be grateful for her for starting that love for me.
This one doesn't fall short of all those needs. We have picturesque village. A bold but cozy set of characters. We have relatable enoguh but just a bit further so there's a a great story to be told.
She is trapped in a troubled marriage. Run luv, soooo many red flag waving at you! And in his latest dealings she finds herself in a whole new country.

He is in said same country, and same village. Suffering and dealing with his own haunts and pain.
Upon meeting there is more than attraction. There is a.meeting and beginning of a gorgeous relationship. One filled with both give and take from equal sides. One of tender support and awareness. And rooting for them I was! And I had to read on well passed blurb tired eyes to make sure these two would be OK.
