Maddy's Christmas Wedding by Rosie Green #LittleDuckPondCafeBook37#review

  Here we are at Book 37 in the Little Duck Pond Cafe series! Maddie's Christmas Wedding is the latest novella by Rosie Green.   With the wedding of the year approaching, excitement is running high at the cafĂ©! But there's just one problem. Maddy is grappling with a secret. Could it derail all of hers and Jack's glorious plans for their big day? Will there actually be a wedding?   My Thoughts In this latest festive story, we are taken out of Sunnybrook, in fact, out of the country and taken for a wintry stay in Lapland. It is Maddy's hen party gathering so some of the Little Duck Pond characters are along too. The story continues on from the earlier Cosy Nights and Snowball Fights . The setting is idyllic and so different to life at home. Everything shimmers and shines in the snow and the temperatures are extreme. Maddy should be having the time of her life but she finds that she has a lot on her mind and a heartbreaking decision to make.     With the men le...

An Impossible Thing Called Love by Belinda Missen #Review #Giveaway

A second chance at love…


When globe-trotting Emmy first fell for first-aider William on a freezing New Year’s Eve, she really believed that their love would go the distance.


 But when she returns to Australia, her letters start to go unanswered and her emails bounce back unread, Emmy decides it’s time to pick up the pieces of her broken heart and start afresh in London.


 So she’s shocked when William walks in on her very first day at her new job! Even worse, he’s hotter than ever. But why did he disappear for so long? What has he been hiding? And could this really be their second chance at falling in love…?


Perfect for fans of Carole Mathews, Mhairi McFarlane and Carrie Hope Fletcher.

My Thoughts

This is a lovely read about Emmy and William whose paths cross by chance and then seem to keep meeting again. There are lashings of chemistry between them from the start and after they meet up again, some years later in London, you follow their 'will they, won't they' story. There are some sweet moments in the book and also some humour in parts as Emmy settles into life in London. I found both their characters to be engaging and you do end up rooting for them.

    Friendship and family are at the centre of this story It is all about taking second chances and facing up to your true feelings. There are some great descriptions of the places which Emmy finds herself in- Hogmanay in Edinburgh, Paris and London, as well as life back in Sydney. For a light-hearted romance, this fits the bill.

In short: Second chances are there to be taken.
