Abigail's Shop by Rachael Herron

Following the death of Eliza, who was famous in the world of knitting and fibres, Abigail inherits a cottage with all its contents in the middle of the land of Eliza's sheep farming ranch.  The rest of the ranch goes to her nephew Cade who has been running and managing the ranch for the last 10 years.  Cade is very unhappy about this unexpected splitting off of the land.  

For Abigail this is the fresh start she needs in a new place away from her ex-boyfriend who has been stalking her.  She is famous in her own right as an author and creator of knitting patterns.  The cottage is absolutely full of boxes and bags and the water has been turned off.  Without work the cottage is not immediately habitable.  Cade is convinced that the cottage is just full of Eliza's rubbish, but when Abigail starts to look through the boxes they are full of fibres, spinning wheels and other things she will need to set up her own shop.  

Although he doesn't want her there, Cade allows Abigail to stay in the main house whilst she works on the cottage.  Eliza was plotting more than just a shop for Abigail, she seems to have deliberately put Cade and Abigail together.
