Ex-ballerina and single mum Sylvie is in trouble. Juggling her ballet classes in the nearest town, preparing shy Sam for his first day at Penmenna Village school and trying to finally move out from the farm she shares with her cantankerous Uncle Tom means life is anything but easy.
Television Journalist Alex is facing challenges of his own. Seeking a calmer environment for his newly adopted daughter, Ellie, he’s swapped reporting in war zones for the school PTA in quiet Penmenna, where his best friend Chase has persuaded him to start laying some roots.
Fireworks ignite when Sylvie and Alex meet but as Ellie and Sam become instant best friends, will they be able to keep things strictly platonic for the sake of the children?

It was lovely to be back in Penmarra and the Cornish Village school. If you have read the first book then the setting and teachers will be familiar to you.
If you haven't, fear not, this easily reads as a standalone with two new families and main characters.
I really enjoyed getting to know Sylvie and Alex, and their two kids Sam and Ellie. Sam and Ellie are the real stars of this book, and I loved their very different personalities.
I also enjoyed seeing how Sylvie grew in confidence as the book progresses, as she tries to get new job and new house.
Its an enjoyable sequel, and good to catch up with old friends to see how they were getting on. I hope there will be more to this series as I suspect it will get better book by book!
Thank you to Netgalley and Canelo for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
