Love Heart Lane – where friends are there for you no matter what

Vet Molly has always been career driven and focussed on caring for her animals, but when she meets a gorgeous Mystery Man at a conference and their connection is off the charts, well, one night off work won’t hurt anyone…except the next morning he’s vanished and all Molly knows about him is his first name.

Three months later, back in Love Heart Lane, everyone loves the story of Molly's amazing one-night stand.  It's so unlike her! But when Mystery Man turns up walking his dog through Primrose Park and their night together seems to mean nothing to him, Molly needs her friends and neighbours more than ever. And especially when she’s left with the most unexpected of surprises…

I don't know how Christie Barlow does it but once again she was written a simply stunning book that I couldn't put down, and completely hooked on. 

From the initial meeting between Molly and Cam, which is rather memorable in its own right, and my only complaint is that it was a fade to black sort of a scene instead of heavy on the action once it looked like things were getting heated.  To the way three months later she is wondering why it was a one night stand, as she was convinced there was a connection - this book has it all. 

Then there is Darling, who is rather contrary to her name, but its through Darling that Molly is brought into the orbits of Dixie and Birdie. And now that is a storyline to watch out for.  Actually Darling I loved instantly, well she does have 4 legs, and just needs to learn to settle down a bit and listen to instructions. 

It is so good to be back in Heartcross and to catch up with all our favourite characters from the other books, especially Isla who is Molly's best friend.  I felt like I was back home almost as soon as the story moved into Heartcross and Glenshiel. 

And although this may be book 6 (how is it book 6 already!), in the Love Heart Lane series, it can easily be read as a standalone story, as we've not had these main focal characters take centre stage before. 

And what about the tile of the book, Primrose Park, well let's just say it plays a rather large part in the book itself, in a few of the storylines and sounds like a beautiful park that the whole community loves. 

Just another heartwarming and joyous read that left me smiling. I can't wait for my next visit to Love Heart Lane as soon as Christie Barlow writes it! 

Thank you to One More Chapter and Netgalley for this copy which i have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
