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.

An (Un)romantic Comedy by Phoebe MacLeod #Review #PublicationDay

 

I am thrilled to be taking part in the celebrations for An (Un)Romantic Comedy by Phoebe MacLeod. It is published today by Boldwood Books.

 
The course of true love never did run smooth, but with Phoebe MacLeod it always gets a chance. Perfect for fans of Jo Watson, Mhairi McFarlane and Portia MacIntosh.

The black sheep is coming home for her sister’s wedding.

One week with the whole family in one house.

What could possibly go wrong?

Poppy is a therapist. You’d think her parents would be proud. But Poppy is the type of therapist that makes her mother cringe - she helps people with their, ahem, bedroom problems…

Normally Poppy deals with her difficult family - two parents, one brother, a couple sisters and an assortment of nieces and nephews - by keeping a county or two between her and them. But with her little sister about to get married there’s no avoiding the week-long family holiday in Cornwall.

The trip was always going to be a catastrophe, but Poppy never imagined how much her family needed her professional skills… Nor did she expect to meet a sexy surfer on what was supposed to be the most unromantic holiday ever.

Can a nightmare holiday lead to the love of a lifetime?


 My Thoughts

This is a thoroughly entertaining read which fizzes along. There are some lively characters who all contribute to the story and Poppy’s family dynamics certainly add to the entertainment. Poppy herself is a likeable character and her sense of humour shines through. 

     Although Poppy usually keeps her family at arm’s length, she cannot help but get involved in each of their quandaries. Sometimes she needs to use her professional expertise. Not used to dealing with teenagers, she finds her nephews and nieces hard to pin down and an echo of her own sibling relationships. There is a gentle slow burn romance on the cards for Poppy but it is actually the humour that is found in the wedding preparations which sets the tone for this lively romcom. 

In short: friends, family, wedding madness and love
