Summer Secrets at Duck Pond Cottage by Della Galton #DuckPondCottageBook2 #Review #PublicationDay

  I am loving returning to the Duck Pond Cottage series by Della Galton . Summer Secrets at Duck Pond Cottage is published today by Boldwood Books on February 22nd.   Can love conquer all? Jade and Finn are idyllically happy in their little corner of rural Wiltshire. A rescue centre jampacked with animals keeps them super busy. With Finn’s art going from strength to strength, Jade can’t believe they’re living the dream until an arrogant property developer with questionable motives jeopardises their perfect lives and the future plans of the rescue centre. Jade and Finn both have trust issues and they’ve promised there’ll be no more secrets. But keeping promises is harder than either of them imagined, especially where Finn’s past is concerned. Living with Mr Spock the potty-mouthed parrot and Mickey the dog who barks at TV baddies there's never a dull moment at Duck Pond Rescue. But will the humans get their ‘happy-ever-after’ too? Can they lay the ghosts of the ...

I Will Follow Him by Holly Tierney-Bedford #Review

I am delighted to bring you number 5 in the Oceanic Dreama Series, I Will Follow Him, on its Publication Day!  It can be read as a standalone although there are plenty in the series for you to sample.



A bachelor party on a cruise ship. What could go wrong?

When private detective Francie is hired to spy on a groom-to-be as he and his bachelor party set sail for the Caribbean, she thinks she's landed herself a week of paid vacation. Between lounging in the sun and sipping margaritas, she just needs to--best case scenario--report back that he's on the up and up, or--the unfortunate, more likely scenario--snap a few photos of her target in compromising positions, buy a box of sympathy chocolates for her client, and then collect her pay along with a nice golden suntan.

Blame it on the island breezes or the alcohol, but within hours of setting sail, Francie's leisurely vacation gets complicated when she starts making careless mistakes. Like accidentally becoming friends with the groom and falling for his best man.

Can she get herself and her mission back on track, or has she blown her cover and possibly even her career?

My Thoughts

There is plenty of humour for you in this book as Francie sets out to investigate a groom- to- be on his stag party cruise. Nothing goes to plan as you would expect and there are plenty of laugh out loud moments. In fact, I would say there is more comedy in this story than romance but it is still there all the same.
    You get the feeling that you know where this story is heading from early on. I must say that it is the long distance bride who has a big effect as her text messages roll in by the dozen. You certainly find your sympathies start to veer of course. Francie will always make you laugh, from her attempts to stay under cover to her wardrobe mishaps. The organised events will make you want to run a mile! This is a lighthearted read for a holiday.

In short: All at sea with no escape!
