Don't You Want Me Baby? by Rachel Dove #Review

  I am delighted to be on the tour to celebrate the latest romcom by R achel Dove,   Don't You Want Mr Baby? which was published by  Boldwood Books on 15th November .    Amber Fitzpatrick is about to hit thirty and has achieved none of the things she hoped to have done by now. Her dreams of owning her own business seem out of reach. Her boyfriend has just dumped her and now her biological clock is clanging in her head. But maybe Amber doesn’t need a man for the next stage of her life? Maybe as an independent woman she can have a baby all by herself? There’s only one problem. Handsome but excruciatingly annoying best friend Tyler Williams. Tyler thinks Amber’s motherhood plans are plain crazy! She just needs to wait for Mr. Right to come along…and maybe he’s closer than she thinks? But with Amber hellbent on doing it alone, Tyler sets out to prove to her that being her best friend could also come with excellent benefits…if only she's brave enough to take the chance.

Sea Holly and Mistletoe Kisses- A Little Hotel in Cornwall Book 3- by Laura Briggs #BookReview

I am delighted to return to Laura Briggs' The Little Hotel in Cornwall for the 3rd in the series, Sea Holly and Mistletoe Kisses which has an appropriate festive flavour.


Christmas is coming to Port Hewer and the hotel Penmarrow, where Maisie is suffering a case of the holiday blues far from home this year — until Gavin, a young American businessman staying at the hotel through Christmas, talks her into joining him as his partner in the hotel's ice sculpting competition in a mutual pact to enjoy the holidays to the fullest.



Meanwhile, Maisie experiences the village Christmas season vicariously through Sidney, and continues writing her Poe-inspired story with only Sidney aware of her secret novel. She soon learns, however, that criticism and praise go hand in hand when he takes issue with her latest chapters, which puts pressure on their friendship, too.



But is that what's really the issue between them? Because handsome Gavin has more than ice sculpting in mind when it comes to Maisie's time, which comes as a surprise to no one who's seen them together. As Maisie faces this sudden romantic dilemma, she realizes what she wants most in her life ... and faces a question of what her heart wants most, too.


                                                                                     My Thoughts

This is a wonderful escapist trip back to a corner of Cornwall which is so appealing. I loved meeting up with Maisie again and finding out how she was getting along.  The community as ever is so important and friendships forged seem to be cast in iron. I particularly liked the festive touches with the ice sculpture competition which added up to a festive activity with a twist.

    Maisie's relationship with Sidney continues to tease the reader and I live in hope that it will come to fruition at some point ( I have my own theories on how that will pan out! ) For great story telling which has a wonderful setting and a lovely cast of characters, seek out this book!

In short: A great setting with some developing characters, read on!
