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.

Love at First Site by Phoebe MacLeod #Review

I am delighted to be taking part in the celebrations for Love at First Site by Phoebe MacLeod. It is published on July 25th by Boldwood Books. 

 
It’s a relationship under construction, and there are no warning signs…

Project Manager Ella Mackenzie thought she had her whole life perfectly mapped out – just like one of her colour-coded spreadsheets.  She is the last person to do anything reckless or impulsive.

But when her and her terrible boyfriend split, she is left single, homeless and without a backup plan.

Suddenly, her whole worldly belongings are crammed into the back of her little Fiat, and she’s driving two-hundred-and-fifty miles across the country to start a new job that she should never have accepted in an industry she knows nothing about. What could possibly go wrong?

Ella doesn’t know the first thing about building sites, but thankfully Noah Harris is an expert in construction and is there to show her the ropes (and the ladders).

And, as Ella is about to find out, he’s an expert in a few other things too…


My Thoughts

 I really enjoyed the underlying tone of humour which is written through the story. She is used to keeping her personal life separate from her working life but that leaves her open to being misled and betrayed. She always keeps your sympathy however and I found that I liked her in every context we met her. Her family care about her but you understood her impatience with the fuss that she encountered there. It is when Ella goes to her new job that the comedy really kicks in.

    This is an entertaining read. I particularly enjoyed John's contribution. You soon realise that there is more to him than the grumpy builder he at first appears, with a blanket dislike of women working on building sites. With the slow burn romance with the personable Noah, this is a lovely way to spend a weekend's reading. 

In short: witty and amusing writing
