A Nantucket Fling by Kathryn Freeman #Review

  Kathyrn Freeman's romcoms are always worth a read so I am delighted to be part of the celebrations for her latest, A Nantucket Fling  which will be published by One More Chapter on June 18th.     Can a no-strings attached holiday fling really just stay casual? Olivia is a fiercely independent woman climbing the ladder of corporate finance.

A Highland Family Affair by Lisa Hobman #Review

I am so happy to be on the tour for Lisa Hobman's third Scottish Highlands novel, A Highland Family Affair. It is published by Boldwood Books on October 21st. 

 
  Can people ever really change or are family ties always set to unravel? 

After inheriting Drumblair Castle over her older brother Kerr, Lady Olivia MacBain has had to forge a new life for herself far away from New York and her dream career in fashion. She fears her brother's bitterness has fractured their relationship to the point of no return and is still clearing away the devastation he left when he disappeared. 

Kerr's unexpected return and supposed change of heart raises eyebrows. He is now seeking forgiveness and to rebuild the bridges he previously wrecked, but can he be trusted, or is it all just smoke and mirrors? 

While her friends are settling down, Olivia patiently waits for childhood sweetheart Brodie to propose and wonders if she will ever get her happy ever after. Can Olivia find a happy future or are promises always made to be broken? 

Perfect for the fans of Alison Sherlock, Jessica Redland and Fay Keenan.

My Thoughts

This is an enjoyable series which builds up a web of relationships which tell you a lot about the community in Drumblair. Sibling relationships are complicated and none more so than that between Olivia and her brother, Kerr. You are kept guessing as to Kerr’s real motivations in returning home. Olivia cannot decide whether she can trust him and whether he will ever truly accept the fact that she has been named heir, over her. 

    You also see how life is going on for the friends of Drumblair as they look to establish a life elsewhere. As always, the setting in the Highlands is gorgeous and makes you want to visit the Castle. there is friendship, family, love and romance to savour as the story develops. This is another winner from Lisa Hobman .

In short: are family ties strong enough?
