Rosa Mansouri
YA // Alluring // Non-Commital // Self Absorbed // Squeamish
Henford-on-Bagley is not really big enough for Rosa. There is nothing she likes more than attention and with such sparse population sometimes attention is hard to come by! Rosa is a bit of a princess, she HATES bugs and mice and, well, basically all animals and she is notourious for her string of heartbroken lovers who haunt her nightmares. Just kidding, Rosa isn’t thinking about her old affairs, she’s thinking about buying a new dress to impress Cai, the cute new guy in town who doesn’t seem to have noticed her yet and that just won’t do!

You’ll have a hard time keeping your secrets to yourself and Lilly is already on her way to have a bit of a chinwag with Delphine, to find out what brings her to this part of the world, you know? That’s not nosy, that’s just neighbourly! Especially, if you bring a homemade cake along!
Cai Sabry
YA // Collector // Materialistic // Loves the Outdoors // Romantic
Ooh boy, did it just get hot in here? Yeah, but that’s just July, you say? It’s probably also to do with the arrival of Cai Sabry, the mayor’s son, who has moved back to Henford-on-Bagely after graduating from Foxbury University. Cai likes to think of himself as one suave dude and he’s already got his eye on the local talent (in particular on a certain shop owner who makes fantastic biscuits) but he’s not just here to have fun, he’s dedicated to making more out of Henford-on-Bagley, spruce the place up a bit! So, who knows what the future will bring and what the residents will say when they hear about Cai’s plans!
