Jessica Redland's series, The Escape to the Lakes, continues with The Best is Yet to Come. It was published by Boldwood Books on 3rd September.
Emma is having a fresh start.
After a successful teaching career, an exciting new chapter
awaits Emma – helping her fiancé Grayson run one of Beatrix Potter's farms.
While imagining days spent supporting Grayson with his dream, working the land
and helping with the animals, Emma harvests a dream of her own – to set up an
alpaca-walking business around the farm.
But working together isn’t as easy as Emma expected. Soon
her dreams are in tatters and, broken-hearted, she must start over yet again.
When Oliver, Rosie and the team at Willowdale Hall welcome
Emma with open arms, she can't believe her luck. But starting a new business in
a new place is a daunting prospect, especially when it comes with unexpected
obstacles. With a reserved, prickly groundskeeper as a partner, rapidly
changing family dynamics to contend with, and time running out to get her new
career off the ground, Emma may have bitten off more than she can chew.
But even though things are not going to plan just yet, the
best is yet to come for Emma, if she can just take a leap of faith and follow
her heart...
Escape to the Lake District with million-copy bestseller
Jessica Redland, for an uplifting story of family, friendship and love.
My Thoughts
I love this series which is set in the beautiful Lake District, with its references to Beatrix Potter. You have your doubts early on about Emma's plans for the future but it is so interesting to see how her sense of self-worth evolves. Her friendships are very important to her but it seems that her family ties are absolutely crucial to her in being able to carry out her ambitions.
Emma's enterprise with her alpacas provides an entertaining backdrop to the story and each one has a different personality, adding warmth to the story. It is also great to meet up again with those at Willowdale Hall and to find out what the future has in stotr for Oliver, Rosie amongst others. This is an entertaining series with some good observations about people's lives and what is important to cherish.
In short: Family secrets come to light.
