Publisher's Summary:
After years of training, horse-mad Flick has finally achieved her dream of becoming one of the few female blacksmiths in the country. Her first job is in Talyton St George. The little cottage where she is staying is idyllic, but she soon finds that she has to work twice as hard to prove herself.
Stunt rider Robbie Salterton is a bit of a local celebrity. He's gorgeous, a devoted single father and gives free riding lessons to disadvantaged children in his spare time.
In addition, he's one of the few men in the village who doesn't doubt her skill. But with his legions of glamorous women vying for his attention, what on earth would he see in her?

I have been reading the Talyton St. George books by Cathy Woodman, since the beginning of the series and itâs always a great way to escape to the country for a few hours of reading pleasure.
I like that although each book features around a new couple, you get to revisit all the past characters and places in the town and surrounding areas, Springtime at Cherry Tree Cottage was no exception and on this occasion the story was built around newly qualified Farrier Felicity and Horse Stunt Rider Robbie, both have their own set of commitment issues, and it made the story in parts a little heavier going than most of the previous books have been.
Dating only leads to disappointment.
Flick is new in town and as such is trying to keep her head down, and work on the round she has agreed to cover for the local Farrier, due to him needing an operation. Getting to know the locals poses its own set of challenges in that, being a woman in what is generally considered a manâsâ job raises quite a few eyebrows, and wherever she goes disaster seems to follow. Robbie for the most part seems to be with her when a lot of the unplanned occurrences happen as well, but whereas everyone else judges her, he tries to offer support and the hand of friendship (initially anyway).
"Tell me Iâve got this rightâ I thoughtâ I can stop. I mean I donât want to wreck our friendship."
I really liked the build-up between the two of them, Robbie has his own interesting life and unique livelihood, and in bringing Flick into it gives her an extended family and friends that makes starting out somewhere new a little bit more bearable.
What I really struggled with was Flickâs attitude and behavior once they stepped out of the Friend-zone.
