Ten Dates by Rachel Dove #Review

 

Today we have a lovely romance, Ten Dates by Rachel Dove which was published by Boldwood on 19th March.

 

Is it the end of their love story or just the beginning?


 My Thoughts

Callum and Alice’s story is both romantic and emotional but always has a lightness of tone, despite the dramatic situation which Alice finds herself in. You always feel a connection between them but are never sure whether they will be able to find their way back to a shared life. 

    Family is very important in the story. Alice’s family play a big part in the ten dates as they happen. Alice longs for the type of marriage her parents and brother have but she has always had an independent streak and stubbornness which has made it hard for her to admit her feelings. You can’t help but admire Callum’s determination to get through to her and never doubt that he loves her. As Alice’s memories begin to reappear she realises that she is going to have to trust her instincts as to what is real and authentic. This is a great read if you are looking for some out and out romance.

In short: will love find a way?
