Title: Making Waves at River View Cottage
Life doesn’t always give you a second chance to make another choice…
Cassie Lewis, a widow for over 20 years has begun to realise there must be more to life.
In-between working at the family boatyard in picture perfect Dartmouth and raising two children, she wonders where the years have gone.
Both her children, Tom and Polly, have inherited their father’s love of sailing and currently Tom is preparing for a gruelling round the world race. When an accident forces Tom to pull out, Polly, to Cassie’s horror, insists she is capable of taking his place.
As Polly prepares for the race, Cassie unexpectedly finds herself with two keen and eligible men vying for her love.
With her BIG 5-0 birthday approaching Cassie knows she has some big decisions to make but will the worry over Polly’s safe return, cloud her judgement?
A wonderful escape to the beautiful harbour of Dartmouth, Perfect for the fans of Lucy Coleman, Jo Thomas and Sue Roberts
Originally published in 2003 as Call of the Sea
Well that was a rather exhilarating read. I adored it.
The action, drama and descriptions of a solo yachting race taking in some rather dangerous parts of the ocean were so vivid I felt as though I was there.
Had my heart racing and had me dreaming of boats and sailing that night after I finishing reading while in bed.
And I enjoyed Cassie's storyline too, with her fears for her children's safety while 20 years of widowhood later, she is realising she needs to get out of her rut and start living a bit more.
I was completely engrossed in this book which I finished in only a few hours. It may have been one of Jennifer Bohnet's earliest books (updated and reissued) but just goes to show even then how good her ideas are. Was utterly fabulous.
Thank you to Boldwood Books and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
