Beauty and the Brooding Viscount will be published by Mills and Boon on May 21st.  I also have a great giveaway for you to enter. Details are at the foot of this post.   A Regency fairytale retelling with a grumpy sunshine romance To make her mark… She must find his match! It’s a tale as old as time: Lucas Worthing, a wealthy Viscount, is reluctantly obliged to find a high-society wife. Especially with a deathbed promise to his mother to fulfill! But the odds are stacked against battle-scarred Lucas when the gossip sheets persist in calling him the Beast of Barnett House.

If she can pull this off, her business stands a chance of success. Yet there’s nothing harder than finding a bride for the man you’re falling for yourself! ...

Fireworks at Pennycress Inn by Sarah Hope #Review PennycressInnSeriesBook3

 

I am delighted to feature another in The Pennycress Inn Series by Sarah Hope. The third in the series, Fireworks at Pennycress Inn is published today by Boldwood Books on November 13th. You can read my review of Welcome to Pennycress Inn here and Falling in Love at Pennycress Inn here

 
🍂 Sparks are flying in more ways than one...

After years of juggling teaching with volunteering, Polly is finally ready for a change. When she lands her dream job at Meadowfield Nature Reserve – with the promise of a promotion in three months’ time – she trades in the stress of the classroom for the beautiful autumn days of the Cotswolds countryside.

Pennycress Inn is the perfect base for her fresh start: charming, cosy and filled with friendly faces. But everything changes when Zac, her attractive but infuriating ex-colleague, arrives. He’s here to take up a post at the reserve too – and is also staying at the inn! Worse still, the promotion Polly was counting on is suddenly up for grabs – and Zac’s her biggest rival.

With three months to prove herself, Polly must navigate village life, unexpected emotions and a career-defining challenge. As tension simmers and fireworks fly, will Meadowfield become the place she truly finds where she belongs – or will she be forced to walk away from everything she’s dreamed of?


My Thoughts

 In this third visit to Pennycress Inn we discover the local Nature
Reserve and some new characters are introduced. Polly moves to the village to work there and is taking a leap into a new future, having left her teaching career for a new direction. This is partly after a bad break up. On arriving at her new job, she discovers to her horror that the post she was expecting is different to the one she aopplied for. Marketing rather than Education is to be her area. Even worse, she is expected to work alongside and compete for promotion with Zac, an ex-colleague with whom she has history.

    Pennycress Inn offers Polly a comfortable base as she settles in which means that we catch up with some familiar characters. During the next few months, Polly finds that she has hidden resources as she is able to empathise with the locals and generate some sensible and useful ideas. Zac is harder to work out and there are one or two surprises in his background which belie the comfortably off young man Polly imagines him to be.  With new starts and second chances on the agenda, this visit to Pennycress Innn is a warm and inviting read.

In short: New beginnings
