If you love all the colours of autumn, you're sure to warm to this uplifting story of love, loss and starting over.
Primrose Wilkins arrived in Sunnybrook with a burning desire to find the family she's never known. But after a heart-breaking false start, she's beginning to have second thoughts. Can she find the courage to battle on in her quest? And with her romantic life at an all-time low, will meeting the intriguing and attractive Callum Davy be just what she needs to renew her faith in love?
Meanwhile, Fen is also finding it hard to be brave. She's made it through to the final of TV show 'Battle of the Bakes' (thanks to Ellie entering on her behalf), but she's always shied away from being in the spotlight. How will Fen cope now that she's a famous 'celebrity', recognised in the street everywhere she goes?

What a delightfully autumnal addition to this series, complete with Halloween and Fireworks.  Plus Maisie Moo in fancy dress, and Maisy Moo just being an all around star. 

Ok I really want Maisie's puppy, she is so adorable and cuddly and Primrose seems to love walking her.  Primrose who moved to Sunnbrook in the previous book, and is now the central character, as we see if she can discover who her birth grandmother really is. 

This is a lovely and moving story, and I loved getting to know Primrose so well.  And of course catching up with all of the other wonderful women that this series has brought into our lives. We finally get to discover how Fen does in the Battle of the Bakes,  and Ellie is getting much closer to her wedding.  

There are two potential love interest in this edition for Primrose,  although I was reasonably sure who she would  be with quite early on, it was enjoyable to see the story develop. 

This is just another incredibly enjoyable addition to The Little Duck Pond Cafe series, and although it could be read as a standalone, its even better having read all the other wonderful books before it! 

Reading this felt like returning home to old friends, and I really am excited to hear there will be another book in this series, as I definitely want more. 

Thanks to the author for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily
