The Cornish Cottage by the Sea by Kim Nash #Review

We are back in beautiful Cornwall with Kim Nash. The Cornish Cottage by the Sea was published by Boldwood Books on May 10th. 

 
A gorgeous, uplifting, romantic read from the author of the Cornish Cove series, Kim Nash

A new start by the sea…

For Jo Jenkins, life has always been about putting others first. But with her children grown and her ex-husband as rotten as ever, she knows it’s time to put herself at the heart of the story. So, when she inherits a beautiful beachside cottage in Cornwall, she grabs the chance to start over.

The crumbling old cottage needs a little love, but so does Jo. And with the help of her new friends – a kind-hearted jeweller, a no-nonsense businesswoman, and a local Jack of all trades with a past of his own – Jo begins to rebuild more than just bricks and mortar.

But tucked away inside the cottage is a secret that could change everything. As the waves roll in and the sea air clears her mind, Jo must decide if she’s ready to let go of the past. Will she finally learn to embrace the life she truly deserves?

Escape to the windswept shores of Cornwall in this heartwarming story of love, friendship, and fresh starts. Perfect for fans of Jill Mansell, Phillipa Ashley, and Emma Burstall.


 My Thoughts

When Jo decides to move to Cornwall, she is taking a big leap into the unknown. With a fresh start, she has to adjust to her new surroundings and see if she is able to transform the Cottage and its outbuildings into something which can sustain her in her new life. As she forces herself to come out of her comfort zone, she makes some lasting new friendships and inspires others to do the same.

    With the stunning setting of the Cornish coast, this is a warm and uplifting read, perfect for the coming summer months. There is also a mystery to solve which may have a deep effect on the lives of several in the story. It will make you want to escape to Cornwall with Jo as she sorts out her priorities and comes to realise what is important in her life.

In short, friendships and romance make for a new beginning.
