Best Mistake Ever by Christy McKellen

  This is a new to me author but I am delighted to feature on the celebrations for the latest novel by Christy McKellen , Best Mistake Ever . It was published by Boldwood on 16th January. Some mistakes are worth making Beatrice Donovan would do anything for her identical twin sister. Including stepping into her hotel management job temporarily and pretending to be her - she’s desperate. What could go wrong? A lot apparently! Because her sister Delilah has hugely understated her role – the hotel is at risk of closure and she’s promised she can turn it around. Now Bea has to find a way to fly under the radar, get the job done before anyone notices their switch up. Sounds easy, all Bea has to do is avoid her temporary new boss Jonah. However, that’s a lot harder than she thought. Not only does he have impossibly high standards, he’s also out of this world gorgeous, an ex-rockstar with a chip on his shoulder and he's watching her like a hawk! So Bea uses her charm to keep him fo...

A Winter Wedding at the Little Duck Pond Cafe by Rosie Green #Review


Here is the latest in Rosie Green's series centred on the Little Duck Pond Cafe. I am delighted to be on the tour, as it is always lovely to meet up with those characters again.
 
With Zak and Ellie’s wedding day approaching, there's high excitement in the pretty village of Sunnybrook, especially among the Little Duck Pond Café crew. Ellie is over the moon with her romantic surprise wedding gift from Zak, and Madison is promising to organise a hen party to remember. Everyone has high hopes for a magical Christmas Eve wedding celebration at gorgeous Brambleberry Manor. (Even Maisie-Moo has a sparkling new outfit.)



But sometimes, even the best-laid plans can go wrong. And with the journey to the altar turning out to be rockier than expected, it’s going to take nothing short of a Christmas miracle to ensure a happy ending . . .


My Thoughts

Having read most of the Little Duck Pond novellas, I thoroughly enjoyed catching up with life in the village again. This story centred upon Zac and Ellie's wedding but in fact was told from the perspectives of Ellie, Fen and Jaz. There are obstacles on the way to the big day and another chance to share in the friendship and happiness which seems to settle in the air in Sunnybrook. As you discover, some characters have doubts and panics which have to be faced.

    I also liked the minor characters who were in the background, usually in the cafe itself. Primrose's newly acquired relatives are a case in point. As with all the previous stories, there are hints of where the story can go next. I am looking forward to the next instalment of this heart-warming look at family and friendship.

In short: Another visit to the delightful Little Duck Pond Cafe.

   

About the Author


Rosie has been scribbling stories ever since she was little.



Back then, they were rip-roaring adventure tales with a young heroine in perilous danger of falling off a cliff or being tied up by 'the baddies'.

Thankfully, Rosie has moved on somewhat, and now much prefers to write romantic comedies that melt your heart and make you smile, with really not much perilous danger involved at all - unless you count the heroine losing her heart in love.

Rosie's brand new series of novellas is centred around life in a village cafe. The latest, 'Bonfires & Hot Chocolate at the Little Duck Pond Cafe', is out now.

Watch out for 'A Winter Wedding at the Little Duck Pond Cafe', which will be published in December 2019.

Rosie is also writing a full-length, standalone book for Christmas 2019, entitled 'Snowflakes over Moondance Cottage', which will be out in November.
 
A Winter Wedding at the Little Duck Pond Cafe will be the seventh novella in the series. You can read my reviews here:
