Dagga and the King of Lollybrod (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781035884476)

King Alphonso, the ruler of Lollybrod, was never a happy man. When his daughter Clovella was born, he declared that she should have a normal upbringing and arranged for her to be fostered by one of his herdsmen, Clem Bagley, and his wife Gladys. They were to raise the child as one of their own until she was seventeen years old, when she would be offered the choice of either staying with the Bagleys or returning to the castle to take up her royal duties.

She lived the life of a farmer's daughter and met and fell in love with local lad Dagga Flintock.

When she became seventeen and her true parentage was revealed, it took her a while to come to terms with such startling information, but eventually she decided that she had no choice but to return to the castle to live as the island's princess.

Hearing of her decision, Dagga decided that he had to leave the country and launched his yacht, intending to sail to Australia, only to be forced back by an intense storm. He hurried ashore to see if Clovella was safe, and as far as we know they lived happily ever after.
