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 café! 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 .

Probably the Best Kiss in the World by Pernille Hughes #Review

Today we have  Pernille Hughes' latest novel, Probaby the Best Kiss in the World.


Jen Attison likes her life Just So. But being fished out of a canal in Copenhagen by her knickers is definitely NOT on her to do list. From cinnamon swirls to a spontaneous night of laughter and fireworks, Jen’s city break with the girls takes a turn for the unexpected because of her gorgeous, mystery rescuer.

Back home, Jen faces a choice. A surprise proposal from her boyfriend, ‘boring’ Robert has offered Jen the safety net she always thought she wanted. But with the memories of her Danish adventure proving hard to forget, maybe it’s time for Jen to stop listening to her head and start following her heart…


My Thoughts

As you read this book, it becomes clear that the past is having a great effect on Jen and on her sister. You get to see how they work out their issues and whether they are able to move on and embrace a new future. There are some genuinely funny parts to the story and although the past has some horrific events, for the main part, there is a hopeful story. 
    Jen, in particular, has a quirky character although she feels a great deal of responsibility for her younger sister. You always feel that you are rooting for her as she shows her courage and determination throughout. With a great lashing of romance and a certain depth to the relationships which are explored, this turns out to be an enjoyable and at times, thought provoking read.

In short: Follow the passion!
