The Village of Happy Ever Afters by Alison Sherlock #Review #TheRiversideLaneseriesBook4
It is a great welcome back to Alison Sherlock and her novels set in beautiful Cranbridge with The Village Inn of Happy Ever Afters.
Molly Hopkins has happily watched all of her friends’ dreams come true on Riverside Lane.
Deciding to follow her passion for baking, Molly with the help of her friends takes the plunge and opens a Tea Garden in the village hoping to make it a summer to remember!
Meanwhile, after a rather public end of his marriage, Logan Armstrong trusts no one but his beloved Grandad. He just wants his brief stay in Cranbridge to be as quiet as possible. But his Grandad has other ideas; he dreams of seeing the old watermill working again which might just mean Logan has to ask the village for help.
Can Molly finally overcome her lack of confidence and believe in her abilities to make the tea garden a success?
Will Logan discover that Molly might just be the one to mend his broken heart? And will both of them realise that life is for living and loving?
Over a long hot summer in Cranbridge, perhaps everyone’s
dreams of a happy-ever-after can finally come true.
My Thoughts
I have really loved this series, set in the village of Cranfield and relished meeting up again with some familiar faces. This fourth novel is centred around Molly, who turns out to be totally likeable. She has some insecurities as she likes to please everyone and, in some ways, this story shows you how she begins to mature and put her wishes and ambitions to the fore. I could absolutely picture the village as each of the houses on the riverfront are smartened up and the watermill at the end makes the whole scene quite idyllic.
Logan has learnt to keep himself to himself as a form of self defence and it takes quite a bit to bring him out of his shell. Both Logan and Molly are kind and concerned for others with a strong sense of family loyalty. They seem to pick up a few waifs and strays as they go along and really give people a second chance without judgement. An uplifting story, this makes for a delightful read.
In short: Delightful storytelling
