Before I talk about the actual book, I just need to mention the beautiful, eye-catching cover because I do love gorgeous book covers, and I'm a firm believer that regardless of what 'they' say ... books are most certainly judged by their covers! Robert and Phoebe are siblings who are both in their early sixties.... Continue Reading →
Returning to Castle Clare for the third in Victoria Connelly's Book Lovers series is like getting together with your closest friends again, and enjoying a long, languid afternoon in a beautiful setting, complete with the finest cream tea!

Callie DiGiacomo is proud of the life she's built for herself. It may not seem like much to others, but to her, it's everything. She's got her own tiny apartment, and a job that she loves as a waitress at The Windmill Cafe. Growing up in the care system from the time she was just... Continue Reading →
Can't I give this 10 stars??? I absolutely adored this book! I loved the Casey's and all their typical family in-fighting and nonsense (actually, in Irish terms it's referred to as 'malarkey' I think).

Marina is the only one who's married and she makes helicopter moms look lazy and uninvolved! Zoe's the corporate, marketing wizz; Verity's a... Continue Reading →
When you read the blurb of this book, you'll be inclined to think that it's your typical story about family angst gone wrong. Well, it certainly starts out like that. Hannah seems to be a rather over-protective mother when it comes to her teenage daughter Olivia. She feels that she's lost all control over her... Continue Reading →
As I'm sure you all know by now if you follow this blog regularly, I do love an Irish read! And this is no different. It's the third in Susanne O'Leary's Willow House series, and for some reason I've only read the second book prior to this - Sisters of Willow House. The first book... Continue Reading →

I so enjoyed her previous book, This Stolen Life, and when I was offered the chance to join the blog tour for her next book, A Convenient Marriage, I didn't hesitate. There are some similarities between the books:... Continue Reading →
