Welcome to the glorious little Cornish town of St Felix - where romance and magic sparkle in the summer air.

An enchanting escape to the seaside. Pure magic! - Heidi Swain

St Felix has stolen my heart yet again; a perfect, sparkling, summer read. - Cathy Bramley

Kate and Clara's Curious Cornish Craft Shop revolves around Kate, who thinks all her wishes have come true when she opens her own little craft shop in the idyllic harbour town of St Felix.

However, a mystery soon surfaces in her new shop - a sixty-year-old love story told through beautiful paintings and intricate embroideries.

Jack, the owner of the nearby art shop, volunteers to help Kate unravel the mystery. In doing so, they realise their own lives share some uncanny similarities with Clara and Arty, their 1950s counterparts...

Can Kate and Jack put right a decades-old wrong, and maybe find their own happy ending on the way?
