The Little Campsite by the Sea by Elizabeth Holland #Review

  Today I am featuring a romance by an author who is new to me. Elizabeth Holland's The Little Cam[site by the Sea was published on November 1st. Beth never planned to return to Llancariad—or to see Rhys again. Beth Alden hasn't been home in years. The small seaside village of Llancariad holds too many painful memories, but when her mother suffers a fall, she has no choice but to go home. As Beth settles back into life in North Wales, she’s forced to confront how much time has passed and how much her mother needs her. While trying to save the family's struggling campsite, Beth’s past catches up with her, stirring her anxiety and reminding her why she left.   Then Rhys Howell, her childhood best friend and first kiss, offers to help.   Rhys has never forgotten Beth or the kiss that changed everything. As they work together to revive the campsite, their friendship reignites, along with feelings he’s spent years trying to ignore. But while Rhys can imagine their fut...

Daisy's Dilemma by Debbie Viggiano #Review

We have a shiny new Romcom today! Daisy's Dilemma by Debbie Viggiano is published today, the 25th May, by Unicorn Publishing.

 Florist Daisy is loved-up and blossoming.  Boyfriend Dominic has proposed marriage!

However, Dominic isn’t in any rush to buy a ring, and meeting the parents is looong overdue.  What is the problem?  After all, Daisy’s mum has already bought her big hat and wants to know the wedding date!

Then careless words plant seeds of doubt and, like weed, Daisy’s concerns begin to multiply.  Is Dominic hiding something?

Meanwhile, sexy ex Harry is back on the scene and begging Daisy for a reconciliation.  He thought the grass was greener with HER but now says he made a mistake.  Is Harry – for once – being genuine, or simply leading Daisy up the garden path?

New neighbour Seth seems like a fun guy, but a single throwaway comment has Daisy mimicking a species of Calla Lily – Red Alert!  It’s time to do some digging.  But even she never anticipated a mad car chase across London or unearthing a shocking secret that changes everything.

Sparks are set to fly in this gorgeous romantic comedy about love, trust, and new beginnings.


 My Thoughts

This romcom sweeps you along. It is warm and witty with some genuinely funny moments. You get the feeling from early on that all is not as it should be with Daisy's partner. It seems that quite a few people have their doubts and you feel as if you are part of their number. Only Daisy is hoping for the best... I particularly enjoyed Daisy's internal monologues as she tried to push her doubts to the back of her mind and loved the heart in her mouth moments when she feared she may have voiced her true thoughts. 

    Trust is pretty high on the agenda in this story. Unfortunately, Daisy is just not sure of certain people. There are misunderstandings, misconceptions and missed opportunities in her life as she struggles to make sense of people's motives. Still I found it a fun read with some lively characters and plenty of humour. 

In short: Dominic, Harry or Seth... who to trust?
