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 Christmas Season by Ally Sinclair #Review

 

Here is your invitation to take part in this second Regency Season of love and romance...set in the 21st Century with some very modern characters and issues. The Christmas Season by Ally Sinclair was published on 10th August by Hera Books

 
You are cordially invited to your Happy Ever After...

Emma Love is a matchmaker who believes in old fashioned courtship, over swiping left or right. She's inspired by Jane Austen, Bridgerton and a thousand and one perfect romance stories, where matches were made at elegant soirees and not by sliding into your intended's DMs.

This year, Emma is inviting you to a very special social season, where a hopeful singleton might find their own Mr Darcy waiting under the mistletoe. At a series of glamorous, festive, and, most importantly, romantic events, Emma is making it her mission to find love for everyone this Christmas Season.

How will she fare trying to find perfect matches for the Price twins, both too busy trying to outdo the other to ever look for love? Can she encourage the sexy Season rake, Theo, to change his ways? And what of Hope Lucas, who Emma has failed to match before, but who still has faith that Mr Right is out there?

And with Emma so focused on finding everybody else’s happy ever after, is she at risk of letting her own perfect match slip away?

Welcome to the Christmas Season.

An uplifting, original and romantic read that fans of Bridgerton, Lex Croucher and Lindsey Kelk will love.


 My Thoughts

This is the first book I have read this year with 'Christmas' in the title but I took a deep breath and plunged right in! I loved its predecessor, A Season for Love and I can tell you you will not be disappointed with the second in the series. It is a great concept which lends itself so well to the romcom format, with plenty of variety and lashings of romance. The Regency vibes are not too contrived and overall, it is a fun read.

    The characters shine through the story. Emma has her own romantic issues in the background, but it is her clients who take centre stage. Their stories all give the plot a contemporary fee  and I found myself wondering what each event was going to be. There are several hints towards the end of the story as to what Emma's next Season might be. I do hope we get to see!

In short: The Season awaits...
