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.

Summer on the French Riviera by Jennifer Bohnet #Review

 

Having enjpyed Christmas on the Riviera, I am delighted to feature the next instalment in the story, Summer on the French Riviera, by Jennifer Bohnet. it was published by Boldwood Books on March 29th. 

You can read my review of Christmas on the Riviera here.


A family reunited after a twenty-year estrangement, will discover secrets that change their lives forever…

Gabriella Jacques, is happy to be back in her childhood home, Villa Espoir in the South of France ready to embrace fresh experiences with friends new and old and to heal some deep family scars.

Recently widowed Harriet Rogers, hopes to rebuild her family life and reconnect with Elodie, the daughter she abandoned into her mother Gabby’s care to follow her heart. But when an acquaintance from the past seeks her out, Harriet fears a secret from her past will ruin her plans.

Elodie Jacques, adores her new life in her Grandmothers old home as a freelance journalist. Her relationship with her mother is tense as she struggles to understand why her mother won’t talk to her about the past, as until their past is resolved, there can be no future.

Will these three women, all living under the same roof after two decades adrift be able to put aside the past and find harmony in the present together?


 My Thoughts

This story of three generations of a family weaves together the different story threads in such an enjoyable manner. I was delighted to take up their lives again and to see how living on the French Riviera has been working out. 

    I found Harriet’s story the most interesting probably because she was  recent addition to the story. The complicated dynamics between the women is skilfully shown as they try to learn to live together. As before, the glorious French Riviera lights up the story and offers an escape to the reader from the grey skies of home. As the secrets of the past filter to the surface, it is great to see the reactions of each of the women. This is a warm, uplifting story about three characters you come to feel that you know so well.

In short: sun, France, romance, family
