The Old Boat Clubhouse is the eighth in the Pepper Bay series by K T Dady. I am delighted to be on the tour to celebrate its publication. You can read my reviews of others in the series here, Starlight Cottage | Honeybee Cottage | Pepper Pot Farm | Lemon Drop Cottage | The Post Office Shop| Pepper River Inn| Silver Blooms Flower Shop.
Welcome to Pepper Bay, where you’ll find love drama, and a
happily ever after.
Snuggle down with this cosy, feel-good, comfort read that
whisks you away to a beautiful bay on the Isle of Wight – Perfect for fans of
Christie Barlow, Alison Sherlock, Rachael Lucas, and Holly Martin.
The Pepper Bay books are standalone stories that intertwine
with recurring characters. Best enjoyed when read in order.
The Old Boat Clubhouse: When Hollywood actor Keaton Byrd
needs a brand boost, the last thing Harriet Hadley thinks is that it will
involve her. All she does is work in housekeeping in Sandly’s biggest hotel.
Being asked to be his pretend girlfriend in exchange for a whole heap of money
doesn’t exist, even in her wildest dreams. Can she really pull it off? Be the
small-town girl who he needs to rebuild his image? It’s worth a try. What could
go wrong? Especially with Keaton’s right-hand man, Jude Jackson, always by her
side, making sure she’s okay. He smells so good, just like the ocean she
adores, and he looks like the men her sister Lexi puts on the front covers of
her steamy romance novels. How is Harriet supposed to concentrate on being
Keaton’s fake girlfriend when she can’t stop looking at Jude? The best part is,
Jude is always looking back.
My Thoughts
Each instalment in the Pepper Bay series adds to the feeling of community and friendship. It makes for a heartwarming read and I always look forward to a new story to see who it is going to highlight. Harriet has a great sense of the importance of family and is determined to build a secure future for her son. When the idea of being Keaton's fake girlfriend is put to her, she even surprises herself when she agrees. It is fairly clear from the beginning that there is no chemistry there.
There is a certain air of fate about Pepper Bay and the feeling that certain people can sense what is going to happen. It seems like an enchanted place in some ways which heals people and offers them the feeling of coming home. Harriet is not the only person in the story who reevaluates her life and takes a risk to try to get the future she wants. This is well up to the standard we have come to expect from the Pepper Bay stories. Read it and enjoy it!
In short: Home is where the heart is
