A gorgeously uplifting, romantic read that will warm your heart – take a trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon, where magic happens…

It’s autumn in beautiful Stratford-Upon-Avon and Kelsey Anderson is enjoying her new life in her adopted town. Her Shakespearean tour guide days behind her, she’s now opened her own photography studio and loved up with boyfriend Jonathan – even if a long-distance relationship is sometimes lonely.

When best friend Mirren Imrie moves down from Scotland, Kelsey is delighted to have her friend at her side – and as the nights turn colder, Mirren throws herself into dating, until she finds herself growing closer to sexy journalist, Adrian Armadale. But when Mirren uncovers a long-buried scandal while working at the local newspaper, her big scoop might throw Kelsey’s – and Jonathan’s – life upside down. Will she choose her career over her friends’ happiness?

And when Jonathan returns from America and discovers the secrets Mirren has uncovered about his family, it throws his relationship with Kelsey onto shaky ground. Can they find their way back to love, before it becomes the winter of their discontent?

A romantic, funny and feelgood read that will make you smile from ear to ear. Fans of Milly Johnson, Heidi Swain and Holly Martin will fall in love with this cosy winter read!

Was lovely to be back in Stratford-Upon-Avon, and to see how Kelsey's new photography studio is going, as well as her relationship with Jonathan. 

I don't really recall best friend Mirren from the first book, so she was like a whole new character to me, and I enjoyed getting to know her. 

I love the Stratford setting of this book, I just don't tend to read many books set there, and the way its described made me feel as though I was in the city myself alongside Kelsey and Mirren. 

This was a really enjoyable book to read, and had me smiling regularly as I read it. I loved the dynamics between the various characters, and discovering Blythe, Kelsey's neighbour was great,  Blythe was great, and has clearly lived an full and interesting life, and the bits she shared with Kelsey were great - plus who doesn't like an older lady who makes her own gin in her kitchen! 

Was just a lovely book, a good sequel, and a great chance to catch up with some much loved characters and see what they are currently up to. 

Thank you to Hera Books for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
