Description

Nine-year-old Tess has never seen anything like The Wild.

An old bakery, converted into a home, it has a fireplace big enough to sit in, a garden with a badminton net and another one for vegetables. And then there's William, its owner. Single father of three, he cooks homemade ravioli, cuts trees down with a chainsaw and plays the guitar.

When her mother, Francine, rents two rooms from him, Tess can hardly believe her luck.

Her brother Jake, however, proves harder to convince.

As the two grown-ups begin to fall for each other, Tess struggles to please the adults, as well as win Jake round.

But she finds that good intentions don't always bring happiness and that adults are disturbingly capable of making mistakes.
