Christmas Wishes at the Station Bookshop by Margaret Amatt #Review #Glenbriar SeriesBook16

  Welcme back to the beautiful Scottish Highlands for Margaret Amatt's  sixteenth in her Glenbriar  Series:Christmas Wishes at the Station Bookshop. This latest novel was published on 14th November by Leannan Press.   After one toxic relationship too many and more failed jobs than she can count, spirited Scarlett Finch has lost her sparkle and doesn’t think she can face this year’s festive season. The last thing she expects is to land a Christmas job at Glenbriar’s Little Station Bookshop, especially not thanks to a slightly unhinged older woman with a parrot, a pug, a wild imagination, and some crackpot ideas for displays – not to mention a flair for making unexpected decisions, like hiring Scarlett without telling the owner. Widowed dad-of-three Lloyd Miller is just trying to keep life on track. Between moving house, juggling his day job, and preparing to take over the bookshop from his retired mum, the chaos inside the shop is the last thing he needs, particul...

The Old Boat Clubhouse by KT Dady #Review #PepperBay

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
