When her father falls ill, Billie returns home to the Yorkshire farm which she left behind for life in London. 

The transition back to country lass from city girl isn’t easy, not least because leaving London means leaving her relationship with Joely Chevalier, just as it was heating up. And when she gets to Yorkshire, Billie’s shocked to discover the family dairy farm is in dire straits – the last thing Billie expected was a return to the life of a farmer but it isn’t long before she’s up at five in the morning with manure up to her wellies. Can Billie must find a way to keep the cows happy, save the farm and save herself?

Critic Reviews

"Original...strong, wittily-observed characters." (Fanny Blake)

"Inspired and stylish.... We cared about the clever protagonist, the supporting characters and the cows in equal measure.” (Jenny Eclair)  

"Witty...full of ironic observations." (Helen Lederer)

A lovely tale, both very funny and very moving

Thank you Kirsty Eyre, this is a brilliant novel, well written and well plotted too. I have always loved cows ever since I was a cow girl myself, so, a love story involving them was just the thing for me. It was made even better by your poetic descriptions, well drawn characters, situations involving almost every emotion and all the of laugh-out-loud moments. The icing-on-the-cake was how beautifully Chloe Massey read the many different voices in this audiobook, never failing to hit the right tone and convey the story perfectly.

brilliant, funny awesome

what a fantastic story, not what I was expecting but I got so into it. I couldnt stop listening. whens the sequel?

Finally a normal gay book with no tragedies

Quirky, funny, great accent - something completely different than other queer stories and not to slushy

Humour and down to earth story. Enjoyable

Good humoured story with a lot of northern wit. Good characters. Plot and well read.

Very well written and thought out

This book starts quite slowly. I didn't think I was going to get into the story. It seemed rather predictive a bit cliche and, in a way it was. However this really fed into the story, calling on stereo types and real life experience creating fantastic and beautifully well rounded caricaturs. The performance was done really well and captured all the cringe, funny and beautiful moments. I felt it really captured the lose of a loved one.

Well read and good story

I really enjoyed this. The narration was lovely and I felt immersed in the protagonists story. Recommend.

Don’t be swayed by the sample…

Worst book I’ve purchased on “Audible”.
The sample is not at all indicative of the books content, quality or desirability in the least.

Brilliant, funny and heart warming.

A beautiful and such a funny read - exactly what I needed. I cannot wait for you next novel and this was so good.
