Life on Frogmorton Farm is never peaceful for long . . . Discover book two in the magical Frogmorton Farm series from Jodi Taylor, author of the internationally bestselling Chronicles of St Mary's. Life is good at Frogmorton Farm. Yes, Jenny and Russell are still broke. Yes, the roof still leaks. And yes, the Checklands are about to become the long-suffering owners of a battalion of trouble-seeking Patagonian Attack Chickens. But life is still quite wonderful for someone who used to be called the Nothing Girl. Jenny Checkland knows better than to count her chickens, though, even the Patagonian ones. Particularly because an all-too-familiar face from the past seems to be popping up wherever she goes. She would swear it was her sinister cousin Christopher, last seen being enthusiastically hurled out of the back door by her wayward husband.

Book Description
From the author of the internationally bestselling Chronicles of St Mary's series... The Nothing Girl has grown up. It's life as usual at Frogmorton Farm - which is to say that events have passed the merely eccentric and are now galloping headlong towards the completely bizarre. Once again Jenny struggles to stay afloat in the stormy seas of matrimony with her husband, Russell Checkland, together with an unlikely mix of Patagonian Attack Chickens, Jack the Sad Donkey and Mrs Crisp's mysterious boyfriend. The old favourites are still around, of course. There's Marilyn the Omnivorous Donkey, Russell's ex-girlfriend, Don't Call Me Franny, and the neurotic Boxer, currently failing to deal with butterfly trauma. So nothing much is new ... except for the mysterious figure dogging Jenny's steps and who, if she didn't know better, she would swear was her sinister cousin Christopher, last seen being hurled from the house by her wayward husband. He couldn't possibly be stupid enough to come back and try again ... could he?

Refusing her mother’s decree that she stay with her stepbrother in London for a Season in order to seek a husband was the easy part. Lady Annabella Price simply hid in a derelict old cottage on the estate and sent her maid instead. Between daily battles with field mice and sucking on her last lemon, life has been far from perfect. But Annabella prefers hiding out in the small abandoned house at Wyndham Green to being with the Duke of Wyndham for even a day. At least she did… until the insufferable Lord Seabrook showed up. Jonathan Durham, Fourth Earl of Seabrook, offered to do a simple favor for his friend: travel to Haselmere to find the duke's stepsister, Lady Annabella Price, and make sure no harm had come to her. What he found was a willful, spirited lady, not a damsel in distress. The impetuous beauty intrigues Lord Seabrook, and he's curious to learn why she's hiding in the cottage. When they’re caught in a compromising position, a hurried marriage seems the logical conclusion. Lord Seabrook sees the marriage as the perfect answer to both of their problems. He needs a wife, and Annabella's mother wants her to find a husband. But how will he convince his unwilling bride to give their marriage a chance when's she's determined to have it dissolved?
