Stacy can’t believe her luck when her best friend Emily invites her on a holiday to Switzerland.
She arrives at the Lakeside Hotel with high hopes, but the problems begin straightaway. Emily’s recent injury doesn’t let her do much, and something is wrong at the hotel. Where are all the guests? Why is the owner’s son so bad-tempered? And then there’s the odd behaviour of Stacy’s fiancé, back home. It’s hard to enjoy the scenery with all this going on…

By the last day of the holiday, Stacy knows her life will never be the same again – but the end of the week is just the beginning of the Lakeside adventure.

A really lovely feed good novella with a stunning back drop of a lake in Switzerland. 

Two friends, Stacy and Emily are staying at the Lakeside hotel for a week of relaxation and recuperation, and it turns into a rather life changing staay for them both. 

I loved the various day trips / outing the friends did around Switzerland and on once occasion Germany and Austria too since they are close to the borders.  Was great to get a bit of insight into some of the perhaps less known areas of Switzerland. 

There are romantic elements too, to this story especially for Emily, as Stacy has a fiance who I didn't think that highly of.  We also get to know Rico rather well, with sections from his perspective of what he should do about the hotel's future. 

An excellent debut rom-com from Melinda Huber and I'm already wondering if I have time to fit in another trip to Switzerland to fit in the second book.
