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.

The Little Venice Bookshop by Rebecca Raisin #Review

 

Today we have an uplifting romcom by Rebecca Raisin. The Little Venice Bookshop was published by HQ Digital on March 30th. 


A bundle of mysterious letters. A trip to Venice. A journey she’ll never forget.

When Luna loses her beloved mother, she’s bereft: her mother was her only family, and without her Luna feels rootless. Then the chance discovery of a collection of letters in her mother’s belongings sends her on an unexpected journey.

Following a clue in the letters, Luna packs her bags and heads to Venice, to a gorgeous but faded bookshop overlooking the canals, hoping to uncover the truth about her mother’s mysterious past.

Will Luna find the answers she’s looking for – and finally find the place she belongs?


 My Thoughts

Luna is a wandering soul who has been brought up by her unconventional mother living ‘off grid’ and who always feels that she is looking for a missing piece in her life. Circumstances bring her to Venice which is a gorgeous setting for a novel. Even better, she finds herself working in a second hand bookshop on the banks of the canal. She has a mystery from her life to solve.

    There is a lot about family and friendship in this story. Luna is an interesting mix of independence and vulnerability and has a certain talent for sensing changing events and a belief in tarot. The quirky bookstore suits her perfectly with its resident cats, all named after literary figures. There is humour to be found in the people she meets in Venice, particularly the local lotharios and in her attitude to life. This is a gentle tale, with a growing romance and a hopeful air. 

In short: uplifting romance set in beautiful Venice
