I am delighted to be featuring Snowflakes at Lavender Bay on the blog on Christmas Eve as it has been such a lovely festive read. I enjoyed reading Spring at Lavender Bay which started off the series and I really loved catching up with the characters again.
The most wonderful time of the year…
Libby Stone has
lived in Lavender Bay all her life. She loves the little seaside town
and has big dreams to turn her father’s greasy old chippy into a dainty
teashop – not that she’s told him yet!
Finding love isn’t easy
amongst the cluster of coastal houses, but it’s not every day that
someone quite as handsome and mysterious as Owen Coburn walks into the
local pub.
And as the snowflakes begin to swirl on the promenade,
Libby realises she’s falling for him. But Owen has been keeping a secret
that could destroy everything…
Perfect for fans of Trisha Ashley, Rachael Lucas and Hilary Boyd.
Book 1: Spring at Lavender Bay
Book 2: Summer at Lavender Bay
Book 3: Snowflakes at Lavender Bay
My Thoughts
Opening this book felt like meeting up again with some old friends. The characters have been so well established that I enjoyed seeing their own individual traits and seeing what they were up to. Owen turned out to have a lot to offer the story with a complicated backstory which really fed into his thoughts and actions. You always felt that he was acting true to himself.
Once more, we have a real celebration of friendship as shown between the three girls, Beth, Libby and Eliza as well as the other inhabitants of Lavender Bay. It is a lovely place to escape to and as Christmas gets ever nearer in the story, it sparkles. I loved the descriptions of the events in Lavender Bay which feels like such a community. It turned out to be a satisfying end to the trilogy and a real festive read.
In short: The road to romance turns out to be a little rocky.
About the Author
Sarah Bennett has been reading for as long as she can
remember.
Raised in a family of bookworms, her love affair with books of all
genres has culminated in the ultimate Happy Ever After – getting to write her
own stories to share with others.
Born and raised in a military family, she is happily married
to her own Officer (who is sometimes even A Gentleman). Home is wherever he
lays his hat, and life has taught them both that the best family is the one you
create from friends as well as relatives.
When not reading or writing, Sarah is a devotee of afternoon
naps and sailing the high seas, but only on vessels large enough to accommodate
a casino and a choice of restaurants.
Sarah is the author of the Butterfly Cove trilogy, published
by HQ Digital UK.
Her new series is set in the beautiful seaside town of
Lavender Bay, and will follow the lives of three best friends - Beth, Eliza and
Libby.
