Love Blooms at the Cornish Cottage by Kim Nash #Review #SandpiperShores #PublicationDay

  We are returning to beautiful Cornwall with Kim Nash. Love Blooms at the Cornish Cottage  is published today by Boldwood Books on April 1st.    💔 How do you mend a broken heart? 💔 Michelle finally thought she’d found love with her hot Greek doctor. But when Demetri reveals he’s returning home to care for his sick mother, Michelle’s dream future crumbles. Choosing not to follow him feels like losing more than just love - it feels like losing who she’d started to become. Determined not to fall apart, Michelle decides to throw herself into rebuilding her life in Sandpiper Shore, but then unexpectedly, Demetri’s brother, Makkis, arrives on her doorstep. Offering him a room seems like the kind thing to do… but the constant reminder of her lost love is difficult for her heartbroken soul.

Chasing Dreams at Wagging Tails Dogs' Home by Sarah Hope #Review WaggingTailsDogsHomeBook2

 

We are back at the Wagging Tails Dogs' Home for book 2 in the series. Sarah Hope's Chasing Dreams at Wagging Tails Dogs' Home was published by Boldwood Books on 25th October. You can my review of The Wagging Tails Dogs' Home here

  
After a difficult break-up, Poppy is keen to put the past behind her and what’s better than some relaxing time with her aunt in the picturesque Cornish village of West Par.

But life at her aunt Flora’s Dogs’ Home is anything but relaxing. When a poor little pup is stranded at the gates, Poppy takes them for a check up at the local vet, hoping against hope they'll be fine.

And there she meets Mack: the vet who is so charming and experienced with the dogs, but selfish and – dare she say it – money-grabbing with his clients.

But underneath that cold exterior, she's sure there's more to the story. If only she could convince him to open up. Because without him, the future of Wagging Tails isn't so assured...


 My Thoughts

The story continues with Book 2 and the setting is as lovely as ever.  This time, we meet Poppy and the vet, Mack.  You get to see hoe Poppy settles in, nursing her heartbreak and trying to move on. I thought it was refreshing how Mack appeared to be less than perfect and  at first, Poppy actively dislikes his decision to charge the Dogs' Charity full rate for his work with them. His reasons for being so have to be unpicked carefully. 

    The Dogs' Charity seems to be under threat due to financial difficulties and this causes Poppy's aunt to take some drastic measures. I enjoyed the characters who all work for the charity and there is humour to be found in them, but most of all, the animals who they are caring for. In the background is the festive season so this makes for an entertaining and appropriate read for this time of year. 

In short: Likeable characters and some lovely dogs
