A Wedding at Wynter House by Emily Harvale #Wyntersleapseries#3 #Review


I am pleased to introduce A Wedding at Wynter House,  the third in Emily Harvale's Wyntersleap series. You can read my reviews of the first two here: Christmas at Wynter House  |  New Beginnings at Wynter House 

Not everyone at Wynter House is thrilled about this wedding.


Secrets have been revealed and new relationships begun. Now it’s time to look to the future. Neva and Rafe are in love and so are Adam and Hazel. Jo’s love life leaves a lot to be desired, although Gavin could remedy that.


But Rafe’s grandmother, Olivia still hopes that something will tear Rafe and Neva apart. Hazel’s new assignment means nursing someone back to health … and there’s history between them. And Jo’s receiving texts from her ex-fiancé.


Then Rafe’s first wife, Pippa – the woman who broke his heart, unexpectedly arrives. And she’s even more beautiful and irresistible than Rafe remembers.


When everyone is looking to the future, will the past prove to be too strong? 


There will be a wedding at Wynter House … but who will be the bride and groom?



My Thoughts

This is a short, sweet read which carries on from the end of New Beginnings at Wynter House and tells you what happens next to all the familiar characters, including some of the Merriment Bay ones. As you would expect not everything goes according to plan and a face from the past causes huge ripples in Neva and Rafe's relationship. Emily Harvale is a great storyteller and you are carried along as the story unfolds. Olivia, my favourite , is back on form and certainly makes her presence felt.

    There are more touches of humour, the introduction of a new character, Ed, and some foreshadowing of where the characters are  going to go next! Even Neva's niece, Sasha reappears. You also find out a little more about Rafe and Adam's relationship and I am sure there could be more to come for both brothers, perhaps in Merriment Bay. I am sad to say this is the last in the Wyntersleap series. With a lively cast, some sweet moments and a huge surprise at the end, this is up to Emily's great standard.

In short: Wedding Bells look set to ring out.
