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.

The Spark by Jules Wake #Review

 

Today I have a great romcom for you- The Spark by Jules Wake.

 
Jess is falling for Sam.

Sam is falling for Jess.

But it seems life will do whatever it takes to make them fall apart.

When Jess and Sam lock eyes at a party, a spark ignites. The spark. But love at first sight isn’t like the movies, especially when Sam’s ex, Victoria, is determined to make their honeymoon period a living hell.

Is love at first sight enough?


 My Thoughts

What an enjoyable read this was! It was one of those romcoms which you fly through, rooting for the central characters and wholly believing in central premise of love at first sight. The whole range of characters were vividly drawn and such a great contrast. Jess emerges as a feisty character who has her own vulnerabilities and a kind heart. Her social conscience is the product in part of her own childhood and you can altogether believe in her. As the story develops, so does Jess and she learns that not everything in her past was as she has always believed. She isn't afraid to own up to that and live for the moment.

    Despite the situation which Sam and Jess find themselves in, I found that there was lots of fun and wit in the story. Victoria, Sam's ex-girlfriend, was a nightmare and I enjoyed following the twists and turns as she tried her best to win him back. Despite this, the overall feeling is one of forgiveness and moving on. There are some gentle moments to offset the anguish as family and friendships come under the microscope.

In short: A heart-warming romcom full of wit and character.
