Finding Love at Sunset Shore by Bella Osborne #Review
Today we have a lovely summery read by Bella Osborne. Finding Love at Sunset Shore was published by Aria on July 18th.
Sometimes, you have to fake it until you make it…
Ros is too busy for a boyfriend; between work and looking after her poorly father, there’s no time left for a relationship. But when she overhears her dad's dying wish is for her to find love, Ros is determined to make it happen – or at least, make it look like it has.
Enter Cameron, a struggling mature student with a mountain of debt but a zest for life.
Ros, driven by love for her ailing dad, reluctantly agrees to the simple business transaction: paying Cameron to play the role of her boyfriend. Ros meticulously plans their fake relationship – but when Cameron decides to go off-script, chaos ensues.
As Ros and Cameron navigate the ups and downs of their faux romance, their differences drive each other crazy. But they may just need each other more than they think…
My Thoughts
Ros is an amusing character who can’t hide what she is thinking and who wants to keep her feelings private. This is partly because of her childhood and the rejection she felt when her mother put her career first and left. However, her close friendship with Darla is genuine and she wants more than anything to make her Dad happy. You feel that people have to be persistent if they want to get close to her and prove to her that they are not going to leave. Cameron sets out as her fake boyfriend but you can sense their growing closeness.
I enjoyed all the humour in Darla’s exploits and her attempts to house sit the animals. There is a good rapport between her and Elliott and their story runs along as a parallel thread. In some ways, the star of the show is Gazza , Ros’s fathers’s dog who has such a good sense of character. As Ros is the grumpy to Cameron’s sunshine, you have an uplifting read, full of amusing moments and genuine, quirky characters.
In short: a hug of a story
