After the heartbreak of being jilted by her fiancé, Katie Campbell has been mending her broken heart in Bali. She has local restaurant owner and new friend Agatha to thank for providing a listening ear in her moment of need. When Katie confides she’s worried about going back to what’s left of her life in London, Agatha has just the opportunity for Katie – to manage her old café in the beautiful, picturesque village of Perrinby in Cornwall.

Although reopening the café and making it profitable won’t be easy, Katie is determined to make the most of her fresh start. She quickly makes new friends in florist Jay, waitress Talia and handsome neighbour Oscar, and focuses on making the café a welcoming place for the community – from hosting floristry workshops to pizza-making nights and even the local knit-and-natter group. But, with the café under threat from the local property developers circulating just as she’s starting to grow closer to Oscar and finally feeling at home, can Katie find the recipe to make her Cornish Kitchen a success?

Escape to Cornwall in this heartwarming romance – perfect for fans of Julie Caplin, Phillipa Ashley and Debbie Johnson

Before you start reading this book make sure to have a large number of snacks,  especially cake nearby as it will definitely make you hungry.

It also though brought a massive smile to my face seeing how Katie gets to grips with running this cafe in Cornwall, and all of her wonderful initiatives.

As much as I enjoyed the authors first book, this was a clear step up and I am really impressed by all aspects of this story. 

I loved the various characters in Cornwall, especially Jasper the florists enthusiasm for all things flowers, and Talia, oh Talia deserves her own book or series. The creativity of her various outfits and insanely brilliant hats as well as her love of astrology, plus her ability to just slightly misunderstand some words just gives us one woman who brightens up any page she is on.

Really enjoyed the setting in Cornwall and the whole community.  As well as Katie's own development during the book.

A joy to read, definitely need to read more from this author in the future. 

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