GET IN TOUCH NOW TO MAKE THIS A SUMMER TO REMEMBER!

Well that was definitely a memorable summer for Clancy and everyone involved in The Roundhouse in the small village of Nelson's Bar in Norfolk.  

What started as an escape for Clancy, soon turns into something so much more, as she gets to know the residents of the village, and one in particular. 

The book opens with a jilting at a wedding thanks to Alice, Clancy's cousin, of Lee, who is Aaron's brother - and its 6 years later that Clancy and Aaron really meet and sparks fly for all manner of reasons. 

This has all the fabulous feeling to it of a typical Sue Moorcroft book.  It is warm, you find yourself drawn into the book, and are filled with regret when real life intervenes and you have to leave Nelson's Bar and return to the real word - always eager to get your next reading fix. 

I loved watching how this story unfurled, especially given Nelson's Bar is almost pre-historic in its charm - in that there is now proper mobile or internet signal, plus the anticipated reaction from one man to a revelation, made me convinced there had to be dinosaurs living there!    

I really did enjoy every moment of this book,  and I would love to see more stories set in Nelson's Bar, it had such a great feel to it.  The writing was great, I loved most of the characters while at the same time really hating the ones you weren't meant to like.  It was just an all around comfortable and huggable sort of a book. 

Thank you to Netgalley and Avon for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
