Stuck in Paradise With You by Laura Carter #Review

  I am delighted to fe ature another lovely romcom by Laura Carter.  Stuck in Paradise with You was published by Boldwood Books on October 15th.   It’s hard to stay professional when you’re stuck on a tiny island… with your ex Carrie Briggs is on the cusp of a career breakthrough. About to be made partner at her accountancy firm, she’s been given one more hoop to jump through before it can be made official. And she could think of worse clients to work with – because world-renowned billionaire Joe Hettich is flying her out to his private island in the Caribbean. But her hopes of career highs (and relaxing in the gorgeous sun in her spare time, of course!) are dashed when she meets the CFO of Joe’s company: Luke Chalmers, the man who broke her heart seven years ago when he chose his ex over her. With a storm brewing in paradise – both in her heart and literally, on the island – she’s going to have to put her big girl pants on and get through this, before all those feelings hav

The Sunshine SistersL Blossom by Rosie Green #Review #LittleDuckPondCafeBook34 #SunshineSistersBook3

 

Here we are at Book 34 in the Little Duck Pond Cafe series! The Sunshine Sisters: Blossom is the third in a trilogy about the three sisters. by Rosie Green.

 
Blossom Sunshine's life is anything but boring right now. She's determined to finally solve the mystery of who her biological father is – despite Mum Ada putting a spanner in the works. What is Ada trying to hide? 

 Meanwhile, best friend Billy is doing his best to impress new girl Jenna. This means cutting back on all the delicious cakes and carbs that he loves, but Jenna's worth it. Isn't she? And then there's Blossom's own love life, which has been a catalogue of disasters up till now – but that was before she met Trevor.  He's not her usual type but she thinks maybe that's a good thing? Could this be real love at long last? One thing's for certain – the path to Blossom achieving her heart's desire looks like it will be far from smooth!

My Thoughts

This is the final novella in the Sunshine Sisters Trilogy and sets about unravelling some deeply buried secrets from the past. None of the sisters are quite ready for the fall out when truths emerge. As before, you are never in doubt about the affection between the sisters and Ada, their mother, but this story goes a long way to explaining the odd dynamics which you have sometimes sensed.

    Blossom's best friend, Billy also features in the storyand is a great support to Blossom. Blossom may have doubts about certain aspects of his life but she too supports him and certainly stands his corner. Although you glimpse Sunnybrook occasionally in the story, the focus is very much on the three sisters. I am ready to return to some of the familiar characters from the previous stories. I'm sure it will feel like going home! 

In short family secrets and romance
