Love is…knowing when to say goodbye

22 year old Lady Sarah Cosgrave is a student at the Sorbonne and heiress to millions, but only if she’s engaged by the time she reaches 23. She’s in urgent need of a fake boyfriend to appease her parents – anyone will do as long as he has long vowels and a long pocket. Handsome French brickie.

Pascal de Sauvarin is neither, but as he’s the only man available he’ll have to do. Can their love overcome the demands polite society throws at it or will she be forced to marry rancid Rupert?

I adored this new novel by Jenny O’Brien. I feel her stories are written just for me. I love stories set in Paris: the café culture, stunning architecture and gorgeous countryside. I was drawn to this book by just the title. Jenny soon had me there in the moment eating pastries alongside Sarah in Paris and when we are introduced to Pascal I was mesmerised by his rugged beauty and accent!

Sarah, formerly known as Lady Sarah Cosgrave, had escaped her privileged life in England to study music in Sorbonne. She’d also escaped the media after word had got out that she was a rich heiress to be. Her late Aunt had left a bequest in her will that if Lady Sarah was engaged to be married on her 23^rd birthday she would receive 80 million. She’s fended off unwanted advances in the past and had been hurt and humiliated by someone else she had given her heart too easily to.

When Sarah spots the ruggedly handsome French brickie working at the building site opposite her apartment an instant attraction is felt. She spends many spare moments gazing at him. However, she doesn’t know that Pascale, the brickie, has also spotted Sarah and he too feels a pull towards her. There is more to Pascale than meets the eye and Sarah slowly learns to relax with this Frenchman.

This was such a lovely romance that totally swept me away with the storyline. Lots of twists, turns and surprises and as per Jenny’s previous form she took me on an emotional journey. I thoroughly enjoyed this contemporary romance and have no hesitation in recommending it.  5/5*

I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book.

I’d like to share one of my favourite quotes from the book:

Product Details (as per amazon page)

1910. Anna Garvey arrives in Caernoweth, Cornwall with her daughter and a secret. Having come from Ireland to take up an inheritance of the local pub, she and her eighteen year-old daughter Mairead are initially viewed with suspicion by the close-knit community.

Anna soon becomes acquainted with Freya Penhaligon, a vulnerable girl struggling to keep her family business afloat in the wake of her grandmother’s death, and starts to gain the trust of the locals. As their friendship deepens, and Freya is brought out of her shell by the clever and lively Mairead, even Freya’s protective father Matthew begins to thaw.

But when a part of Anna’s past she’d long tried to escape turns up in the town, she is forced to confront the life she left behind – for her sake and her daughter’s too . . .

This was a wonderful family saga set in Cornwall in the early 1900’s.

Anna and her teenage daughter, Mairead, escape a secret that they hope has been left hidden in Ireland. They take the long, cold journey across the sea and counties to relocate in the small, rugged coastline village in Cornwall. Anna has a long-lost family business back in the village and hopes to be able to move easily back into it without upsetting the current residents.

The village is quite a close-knit community, especially with the fishermen. One of the fishermen is Matthew Penhaligon. Matthew had it all: a beautiful wife, doting daughter, a job he loved working out on the sea. But he had another love 8 years ago which nearly cost him everything he had.

Can this close knit community trust the new outsiders? Will Anna and her daughter Mairead be able to keep their dark secrets hidden? Can Matthew keep his demons in the past?

The village has seen many changes over the years and business owners (including Matthew’s parents own, Penhaligon’s Attic a wonderful bookshop) are facing hard times. With the changes in industry and economy can the bookshop survive in this unknown future?

A lovely story of grief, hardship, community spirit, dark secrets, love and hope set in a wonderful idyllic location.

I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this novel.

Brides & Bouquets by Rebecca Raisin book review/blogtour

Brides and Bouquets At Cedarwood Lodge written by Rebecca Raisin, publisher HQ Digital, is available NOW in ebook format.

To buy link:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Brides-Bouquets-Cedarwood-Lodge-Christmas-ebook/dp/B01I9AEIEQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1480270083&sr=8-2&keywords=brides+%26+bouquets

Product Details (as per amazon page)

Dreaming of a happily ever after at Cedarwood Lodge is Clio Winters’ current focus, especially with a winter wonderland wedding expo planned. But with brides coming from far and wide the heat is on for Clio to fulfil everyone’s dream of a Christmas wedding!

It seems like Clio’s new business might be off to a rocky start and surrounded by love struck brides she can’t help but hope for a little Christmas romance of her own…

Cedarwood Lodge is a delectable romance told in three parts – following Clio Winters journey back to her hometown of Evergreen. This is Part Two.

I absolutely adored revisiting Cedarwood Lodge with Rebecca Raisin. Brides and

Bouquets is the second instalment in the new trilogy by Rebecca Raisin set on Clio

moving back to her hometown Evergreen and purchasing Cedarwood Lodge,

renovating and refurbishing it back to life.

We find Clio, joined by her best friend from New York Amory, preparing the lodge for

Christmas and their first wedding expo. The Lodge and grounds are now beautifully

restored and it sounds so idyllic with the mountainous backdrop. Snow has arrived in

Evergreen making the preparations even more beautiful and realistic.

Clio is still concerned about the secrets the Lodge holds and her mom being part of

them. The townsfolk are very guarded about the secret but Clio makes a startling

discovery and doesn’t know were this discovery will lead to and what it will do to the

already frosty relationship with her mom.

Amongst all this history Cedarwood Lodge is casting its spell in the present with love

blooming and possibly blossoming for the characters we’ve grown to love.  Rebecca

has left us with a cliff-hanger and I can’t wait for book 3.   A wonderful heart-warming

story that will leave you wanting more.  5/5*

I’d like to share one of my favourite quotes from the book:

How learning to write is like learning to knit

I’ve been a writer and a knitter both since before I can remember, and have had triumphs and disasters in both arenas. But what I’ve learnt along the way is that the two have an awful lot in common. Think about the first piece of knitting you ever did. If you’re anything like me, it probably looked like a sorry dishcloth, with stitches appearing and disappearing at will, wobbly edges and plenty of holes. This sounds an awful lot like my first attempt at a novel. The one that has sat in a drawer for years, and which I hope will never be rescued from there.

If you’re starting out as a writer, chances are your first draft of your first chapter of your very first novel will look equally bedraggled, with holes and diversions and a strange mess in the middle: you’ve no idea how it started and no clue how to fix it. So what do you do? You keep going, keep writing, keep knitting, because by the time you’ve knitted or written for long enough, your stitches and your words will be even and you won’t have dropped a stitch for days (OK, maybe hours).

You might not want to wear what you’ve knitted, or share what you’ve written. But this doesn’t mean that your time was wasted. Because when you start your next piece, you’ll have all that practice under your belt. Because, like writing, knitting is addictive, right? So the second attempt was a little better, a little more even. You think, ‘Hey, I’m getting the hang of this. Maybe I’ll try something a bit more complicated.’

And that’s where you can dive in, experiment, stretch yourself and your craft. Write in a different POV; tackle a fisherman’s rib. Try a new genre; attempt a popcorn bobble. Because once you’ve got the basics mastered, what’s the worst that can happen? Sure, it might not look exactly like you hoped. You might have to rip it back a couple of times and try again. But eventually, you’ll get it. And as you pull on your aran cabled tunic, or run your fingers down the spine of your very own novel, you’ll know that all the days of aching fingers and tired eyes were worth it.

Brilliant, inspirational advice Ellie, thank you.

Product Details (as per amazon page)

Olivia has never experienced a snow-covered, ‘traditional’ Christmas before. Having grown up in a family that chose winter sun over decking the halls, she’s not sure what all the fuss is about. So when she and her colleagues are stranded in New York after a work trip, Olivia is perfectly happy spending the holiday season in the Big Apple.

Jon, Olivia’s friend, on the other hand is desperate to get home in time for his big family get-together. Nevertheless, determined to make the best out of the situation, he sets out to show Olivia how enchanting Christmas in New York can be. And when handsome New Yorker Elijah is added to the mix, could the magic of the season finally be working its charm on Olivia? As 25 December draws closer, Olivia suddenly finds herself with a decision to make: who does she really want to kiss under the mistletoe this Christmas?

I am so pleased to be involved in the blogtour celebrating and promoting the release of Lisa Dickenson’s new novel, Mistletoe on 34th Street.  I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this novel and would like to thank the publishers for this.

What a super winter warmer of a read this was.  I’m feeling quite sad that I’ve finished reading this sparkly story.  I want to read it all over again and experience the wonderful winter journey Olivia took which led her to New York gaining experience and accolades in her professional life and experiencing new highs and facing up to old demons in her personal life.

Lisa Dickenson’s novels wrap you up like a hot spicy tea; they warm you up from the inside but have that extra zing that tantalise your taste buds and leave you wanting more …

Olivia has been given a temporary promotion leading her team of colleagues on the trip to the annual conference in New York.  The team are hoping to get international interest in their business Girls of the World which helps promote esteem, equality and courage to girls worldwide.  I loved the sound of this organisation and could see why the team were so positive about promoting it.  The conference is four days in New York, a week before Christmas.  New York is idyllic in the winter time and especially with the run up to Christmas however, Olivia is not a fan of all things Christmassy.  Her family have never had a traditional Christmas together, they always favoured time away in sunnier climates.  So Olivia is hoping once the conference is done with she can go home over the holiday season just chillout and relax on her own.  However, her plans of tranquillity go awry as the team are left stranded in New York due to horrendous snow storms back in the UK.  An extended stay in the wonderful wintry city is perfect for some but not for others.  Will New York’s winter magic cast a spell on Olivia and change her whole perspective on Christmas?  Jon, one of Olivia’s colleagues is hoping to bring New York’s magic to Olivia and puts a plan in action to warm her heart.  However, a ruggedly handsome friendly New Yorker has his own way of helping spread cheer to Olivia.  With two men vying for Olivia’s company she is left confused with all this attention.  Each man has a different way of appreciating the season.  Will Olivia be blinded by the handsome native from New York or will Jon her old and trusted friend know exactly how to show Olivia the wonder of the season?

This was such a gorgeous read from the pretty, sparkly cover to the fabulous words of warmth, wit, wisdom and humour inside I soon got wrapped up in Olivia’s life and felt like I was with her in the city.  The sounds and sights in this great city that championed so many Christmas movies felt so real with the author’s descriptions … I wanted to be right there in the middle experiencing it all!  I never would have thought New York to be romantic but with the city transformed by freezing temperatures it felt like one of the warmest places to be in December with the Christmas spirits embracing you all and leaving no-one without a smile and a warm heart.  Lisa packs her stories with heart, warmth, humour and lots of festive fun.  5/5*

Mixing It Up by Tracie Banister book review

Mixing It Up written and self-published by Tracie Banister is available NOW in ebook and paperback format.

To buy link:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mixing-Up-Tracie-Banister-ebook/dp/B01MA4KDSY/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1478510088&sr=1-1

Product Details (as per amazon page)

Born with a silver spoon in her mouth, Manhattan upper-cruster Cecily Sinclair now uses that pricey utensil to dish up fancy French fare on her cooking show, Serving Romance. When there’s an executive shake-up at the network, she’s not worried. Not much anyway. Her show’s a hit after all. Why would the new CEO want to mess with success?

The driving force behind several buzzed-about networks, Devlin Hayes is considered to be a wunderkind in the television industry. Although his plans to rebrand CuisineTV and make Serving Romance more Millennial-friendly don’t thrill Cecily, her charming, blue-eyed boss is a hard man to say “no” to and she really wants to keep her job—even if that means sharing screen time with a loathsome blast from her past.

Mercurial Italian chef Dante Marchetti a.k.a. “Il Duce” was once Cecily’s boss, and she has the PTSD to prove it. Now the owner of one of the hottest restaurants in town, Dante’s egomania knows no bounds and his constant attempts to provoke and upstage Cecily make her want to conk him on the head with a sauté pan. She thinks they’re toxic together, but viewers love their chemistry and clamor for more.

As Cecily battles to maintain the integrity of her show, she finds herself scheming and manipulating right along with Dante and Devlin. Is she fighting a lost cause? Does she really belong on TV, or would her culinary talent be better served elsewhere? And could one of the men who makes Cecily’s blood boil ignite a passion in her for something other than food?

I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book and would like to thank the author for this.

I really enjoyed this fabulous, flirty, foodie fiction.  With all the delicious food descriptions and flirting I was quite famished whilst reading it!

I loved the concept of this story a TV food show with two opposing chefs with different tastes and ideas.  The chemistry was quite sizzling between Cecily who was skilled in French cuisine and Dante an Italian chef. There was also sparks igniting between Cecily and her new boss Devlin and with the renewed interest of Cecily’s ex, Bryce, the storyline held plenty of will they won’t they moments and the author, Tracie Banister, kept you guessing to which man, if any, Cecily would go for!

However, Cecily not only has complications in her personal life but with the introduction of a new boss at the TV studio her working life has had a reshuffle and her planned career path is not a pretty picture anymore.  Will the feuding at work spill into her private life and can Cecily fulfil her French cuisine dreams?

Tracie Banister has also created some wonderful sub-characters in this story.  I loved Dina, Cecily’s cousin and confidante, she was a very colourful character with wonderful bohemian qualities.  I also loved Cecily and Dina’s grandmother, Bernadine Sinclair and head of the Sinclair Dynasty.  She was so proud of her heritage and the family feared her.

Tracie Banister has once again created a very readable romantic comedy.  I was smiling at the great comedic scenes, drooling over the food and also the leading men!  A gorgeous story that will leave you hungry for love … oh and food!  5/5*

Two’s company…

If you asked Mollie whether she struggled as a single mum, she’d have to cover her daughter’s ears before answering. Surrounded by friends, watching Esme grow into the sassiest eleven-year-old in North London, and building her name as TV chef Mollie Makes, Mollie’s never been happier. Well, that’s what she’d tell you. But as her best friends pair off, and Esme starts getting into trouble at school, Mollie wonders whether life would be different – not better…but easier – with a team mate.

Three’s a crowd?

But Esme’s dad, Jamie, would be the last man Mollie would team up with. After all, he made it clear eleven years ago that he wasn’t interested in playing the family game. So when he suddenly reappears, Mollie can’t believe her eyes. And soon, she’s got to ask herself the hardest question yet: she knows she can succeed as a single mum. But what if her daughter doesn’t want her to?

Be My Baby is the third and final instalment in The House on Camden Square series.  I’ve been so thrilled and delighted with this series.  You can find my review for Book 1 Goodbye Ruby Tuesday here and for Book 2 Nice Day for a White Wedding here.  I would strongly advise reading all the books in the series in order to fully appreciate the back story of each character and their individual relationship with Ruby.

A.L. Michael’s writing style is so warm and friendly you instantly fall in love with the characters and feel involved with the storyline.  Be My Baby is Mollie’s story and once again the author takes us on a time hop journey to significant periods or events in Mollie’s life especially with Ruby.  Also, we hear about Mollie and her first love Jamie and the time hop to their few months together was just so lovely but also felt quite tragic.  Mollie fell pregnant during her short time with Jamie, they both had plans to go to university but the baby news put a hold on for these plans.  New plans were hatched out and the young couple were both excited and nervous for the future.  However, life didn’t go to plan for Mollie and Jamie.  Mollie was suddenly left by Jamie.  Mollie was totally distraught and for a good while she saw no end to her anguish.  Mollie however, found the strength within her and for the last eleven years she has single handedly cared for and nurtured her daughter Esme.

Mollie and Esme now live in London in the Arts Centre that Ruby left to her and her school friends Evie and Chelsea.  The Arts Centre is progressing well and Mollie’s creative side is her love of food and her genius in making wonderful healthier versions of favourite meals and cakes.  She’s due to start her parent and child cooking demonstrations soon and an appearance on the local breakfast TV show brings new life into her career and also her personal life.

Mollie hasn’t seen or heard of Esme’s dad Jamie for eleven years.  Esme is having a difficult time at school with fellow students enquiring about her missing father.  When Jamie turns up out of the blue in Mollie’s life her world is shaken upside down.

We follow Mollie’s journey on coping with this new arrival.  How or will she introduce him to Esme?  Can Mollie forgive him for all the heartache she’s received?  Can she trust him with her daughter’s heart and also her own again?

This was such a lovely, heart warming story but also it was quite tragic.  From certain events in the past two people have been denied the chance of love.  They are both confused with what went wrong and unsure of who to blame.  A learning curve for Mollie, Esme and Jamie is required to cope with this new dynamic in the family structure.  My heart was aching for all three of them, they have all had to deal with loss, grief, betrayal, torment.  A.L. Michael has written a fun, romantic, witty, heart warming and pull at the heart strings series.  This has been a fabulous conclusion to a gorgeous series.  I’m quite bereft it’s come to an end but it feels like a whole new beginning for the girls at The House on Camden Square.  5/5*
