Love at the Little Wedding Shop by the Sea by Jane Linfoot #Review #LoveAtTheLittleWeddingShopBook5


 Today, you can escape to Cornwall for the fifth in the Little Wedding Shop by the Sea series.

‘A pure delight’ Debbie Johnson

It’s the most romantic day of the year but the girls aren’t just gearing up for Valentine’s Day and a busy wedding season ahead, it’s also the 10 year anniversary of their beloved shop!

Jess is planning the party of the decade and with the champagne and cocktails flowing, sparks are going to fly…and not just from the fireworks display!


                                                                                      My Thoughts

This is such an enjoyable read. It is the sort of book that you read with a smile on your face. I think it is mainly because of the humour which is there all the time, just beneath the surface, during most of Milla and Nic's conversations and also in some of the situations which Milla gets herself into. All the characters are totally likeable and credible. The setting is as gorgeous as it could be and in all, it just turned out to be a really fun read.

    I also liked the positive image it gave to disability and inclusion. I can't say anymore without giving away some plot spoilers but it takes an unsentimental view and a heart-warming tone. It certainly isn't the first book I have read this year which is set in Cornwall and featured weddings but it still has a fresh and fun feel and makes me want to look out more in the series.

In short: great characters and plenty of fun!

                                                                               About the Author 


I write fun, flirty fiction, with feisty heroines, and lots of heart. Writing is fab, because I get to wear pretty shoes instead of wellies. I live in a cottage up a mountain road in Derbyshire, where my family and pets are kind enough to ignore the domestic chaos. Happily, we're in walking distance of a supermarket. I love hearts, flowers, happy endings, all things vintage, most things french. When I'm not on facebook, and can't find an excuse for shopping, I'll be walking, or gardening. On days when I want to be really scared, I ride a tandem.
