Summer Secrets at Duck Pond Cottage by Della Galton #DuckPondCottageBook2 #Review #PublicationDay

  I am loving returning to the Duck Pond Cottage series by Della Galton . Summer Secrets at Duck Pond Cottage is published today by Boldwood Books on February 22nd.   Can love conquer all? Jade and Finn are idyllically happy in their little corner of rural Wiltshire. A rescue centre jampacked with animals keeps them super busy. With Finn’s art going from strength to strength, Jade can’t believe they’re living the dream until an arrogant property developer with questionable motives jeopardises their perfect lives and the future plans of the rescue centre. Jade and Finn both have trust issues and they’ve promised there’ll be no more secrets. But keeping promises is harder than either of them imagined, especially where Finn’s past is concerned. Living with Mr Spock the potty-mouthed parrot and Mickey the dog who barks at TV baddies there's never a dull moment at Duck Pond Rescue. But will the humans get their ‘happy-ever-after’ too? Can they lay the ghosts of the ...

Summer at Blue Sands Cove by CP Ward #Review #GloriousSummerBook1

 

Today I am featuring CP Ward's latest novel, Summer at Blue Sands Cove which is the first book in the Glorious Summer series.


Tired of the city, Grace Clelland returns to Blue Sands, the quiet Cornish seaside village where she grew up. There she will meet old flames and old friends, rekindle old loves and ignite new ones in a novel that will have you dreaming of the soft crash of the waves on the shore, the feel of sand between your toes, overloaded ice-creams and smoky beach barbeques.


 My Thoughts

Starting over and taking a second chance runs through this contemporary romance. Grace has returned to the seaside village where she lived as a young girl and takes the opportunity to reconnect with old friends and familiar haunts. Grace had ambitions to spread her wings beyond the life she knew but has found that the grass is not necessarily greener. 

    This is a light and enjoyable story with romance in the background. Grace's friendship with Joan is believable and central to the story. Grace finds that for some, there have been lifechanging changes and this is dealt with in a matter of fact manner but with sensitivity. I enjoyed the humorous episodes, especially when Grace came into contact with her next =door neighbour. This is a book to take on holiday, with a warm uplifting tone and plenty of subplots to keep your interest.

In short:  A light romance full of summer sun.
