 Today I am thrilled to be on the first day of an amazing tour to celebrate Sue Moorcroft's fabulous fiction. A Skye Full of Stars, her latest novel, is her 25th published book ! Over the next few weeks, you are going to be treated to a reminder of all those great novels and it is my honour to start the ball rolling with the first in the Middledip series : Starting Over .                    Tess Riddell has just been dumped. By her fiancé. Via email. Her life has been torn apart and she’s left to pick up the pieces. Alone. It’s time for a new start where nobody knows her. And Tess can’t imagine anywhere better than Honeybun Cottage in the peaceful village of Middledip. But life has other plans. She crashes — quite literally — into a handsome stranger down a winding country lane. Tess and Miles definitely don’t hit it off, though.

The Blossom Tree of Dreams by Holly Martin #Review #WishingWoodBook1


 Welcome to The Blossom Tree of Dreams  the latest Holly Martin romance and the first in a new series, called Wishing Wood.

Escape to a beautiful luxury treehouse overlooking the sun kissed sands of the Welsh coast this summer, where the sea sparkles, the golden sun warms your skin and true love is in the air. From the bestselling author of Sunlight over Crystal Sands comes Holly Martin’s most romantic novel yet.

Indigo Bloom is on her way to an wonderful treehouse resort with some very big news. Two months ago she shared an incredible night with the most amazing man. She didn’t think she’d ever see River Brookfield again, but she never imagined she’d be showing up out of the blue to tell him she’s pregnant with his child.

Indigo’s heart longs for a fairytale ending. There’s just one problem: River doesn’t remember who Indigo is…

Crushed that a night that meant so much to her was so forgettable for him, Indigo resolves to keep her identity and her pregnancy secret until she gets to know the real River. But as they spend more time together, it’s clear that the incredible connection they shared that first night is stronger than ever, and that River might remember more than Indigo first thought.

The closer they get, Indigo’s secret becomes harder to share. Can Indigo find the courage to tell River the truth? And if she does, will she get the fairytale ending she’s been dreaming of?

Make all your dreams come true this summer with this feel-good love story that will sweep you off your feet. It’s the perfect read for fans of Jill Mansell, Sarah Morgan and Sue Moorcroft


 My Thoughts

 
I was excited to read this book as it is the first in a new Holly Martin series. The setting is absolutely magical, set with fantastical treehouses in a lovely rural setting. The two main characters, Indy and River meet again after a one- night stand and you are unsure at first whether River remembers her. Indy is an interesting character with her insecurities, both mental and physical.

    The family dynamic between the three brothers, River, Heath and Bear points to some further stories in the series. The wider family introduces characters from across the generations and at both ends of the age scale, there are opportunities for humour and some uplifting moments. This is a feelgood story and a promising start to the series

 

In short: Magical setting and lovely characters

 

About the Author


 Holly lives in a little white cottage by the sea. She studied media at university which led to a very glitzy career as a hotel receptionist followed by a even more glamorous two years working in a bank. The moment that one of her colleagues received the much coveted carriage clock for fifteen years’ service was the moment when she knew she had to escape. She quit her job and returned to university to train to be a teacher. Three years later, she emerged wide eyed and terrified that she now had responsibility for the development of thirty young minds. She taught for four years and then escaped the classroom to teach history workshops, dressing up as a Viking one day and an Egyptian High Priestess the next. But the long journeys around the UK and many hours sat on the M25 gave her a lot of time to plan out her stories and she now writes full time, doing what she loves.

Holly has been writing for 8 years. She was shortlisted for the New Talent Award at the Festival of Romance. Her short story won the Sunlounger competition and was published in the Sunlounger anthology. She won the Carina Valentine’s competition at the Festival of Romance 2013 with her novel The Guestbook. She was shortlisted for Best Romantic Read, Best eBook and Innovation in Romantic Fiction at the Festival of Romance 2014. She is the bestselling author of 18 books.
