Schubert

Alfie McCreadie wants his twin sister, Nessa, to have the best wedding ever, but he’s not happy at being roped in as wedding planner - especially as, unbelievably, his main assistant seems to be Nessa’s cat, Schubert. Anyway, Alfie is a scientist. He might know his protons from his neutrons, but what does he know about weddings? It’s Nessa who points him in the direction of Bea’s Garden. It’s there he meets Fae Brimham, who might be prettier than any bouquet bloom but doesn’t seem impressed by Alfie’s sensible, scientific side.

What's not to love about Bea's Garden? Its higgledy-piggledy layout, fascinating plants and occasional resident black cat makes it the most charming place to visit on a sunny afternoon. Plus Bea has bees - and her Honey Festival is sure to create a buzz. But not everyone thinks Bea’s Garden is the bee's knees. The Man at the Big House next door has been a thorn in Bea's side for the longest time, with his unnecessarily snippy letters about her beautiful climbing plants ruining his 'clean lines'.
