Snowflakes over Middlewick Bay by Eliza JScott #Review #MiddlewickBayBook8

I am delighted to feature the eighth in Eliza J Scott's Micklewick Bay series, Snowflakes Over Middlewick Bay , which was published by Storm Publishing on October 2nd. A wintry treat brimming with snowflakes, secrets and second chances!   When her beloved Aunt Colleen passes away, settling her affairs means doing the one thing Hannah Merryweather has spent years avoiding: returning to Micklewick Bay, the seaside town she fled years ago and has never quite found the courage to face again.   Coming home means facing the past too. Polly, her stepmother, and Darryl, her stepbrother, still loom large over the life she once knew, and the home she lost is never far from her thoughts.   Then, on her very first day back, she nearly collides with the one man she never expected to see again: Lachie, the kilted, green-eyed Scotsman who stole her heart last spring. His unexpected arrival in Micklewick Bay is the last complication Hannah needs – especially as feelings she thought she’...

The New Guy by Kathryn Freeman #Review


 Any new novel by Kathryn Freeman brings a smile to my face and her latest, an enemies to lovers romcom, The New Guy, is published today by One More Chapter. If you want to have a look at my reviews of some of her earlier books, you can check them out here:  A Little Christmas Charm  |  Oh Crumbs |  A Little Christmas Faith |  Crikey a Bodyguard | Reach for a Star

Sam Huxton doesn’t do one-night stands, especially not with men she’s just met! But the hot guy at the bar was hard to resist and their one night together is one she’ll never forget.


But one night is all they share – no names, no numbers, just some much needed fun…


Until the same guy walks into Sam’s life the next day as her new employee.  Sam never mixes business with pleasure and makes it clear an office fling with Ryan is off-limits.  But after-hours…one thing can lead to another. Can Sam trust her heart and her business with the new guy?


 My Thoughts

This is an entertaining romcom which takes a tongue in cheek look at office romances. On the face of it there are plenty of plot cliches but I didn't mind that. I always enjoy books which let you into the male perspective and Ryan's insecurities, which he tried so hard to hide, gave him more depth and back story. In some ways, Sam is harder to empathise with. She is the super competent company CEO, the brains behind the company, but I thought that the insights you got into her family helped to flesh out her character.

    Kathryn Freeman always writes with an enjoyable, easy style which leads you through the story. There are some amusing secondary characters and of course, a real contrast between Sunshine Sam and the brooding Ryan.  This is an enjoyable and quick read and lovers of romcoms will speed thorugh it with a smile.

In short: Opposites attract. 

About the Author


A former pharmacist, I’m now a medical writer who also writes romance. Some days a racing heart is a medical condition, others it’s the reaction to a hunky hero. 


With two teenage boys and a husband who asks every Valentine’s Day whether he has to buy a card (yes, he does), any romance is all in my head. Then again, his unstinting support of my career change proves love isn't always about hearts and flowers - and heroes come in many disguises.
