The brand new summer rom com from Bella Osborne full of love, sunshine and life's twists and turns!

Sometimes, you have to fake it until you make it…

Ros is too busy for a boyfriend; between work and looking after her poorly father, there’s no time left for a relationship. But when she overhears her dad's dying wish is for her to find love, Ros is determined to make it happen – or at least, make it look like it has.

Enter Cameron, a struggling mature student with a mountain of debt but a zest for life.

Ros, driven by love for her ailing dad, reluctantly agrees to the simple business transaction: paying Cameron to play the role of her boyfriend. Ros meticulously plans their fake relationship – but when Cameron decides to go off-script, chaos ensues.

As Ros and Cameron navigate the ups and downs of their faux romance, their differences drive each other crazy. But they may just need each other more than they think…

Full of romance, sunshine and a whole lot of fun, Finding Love at Sunset Shore is the perfect escapist rom com for summer 2024!

Another cracking book from Bella Osborne an author who always delivers a story that I am absorbed by. 

And this one has a fake dating trope too, which is one of my favourite romance tropes and done so well and for very good reasons .

Ros and Cameron though are total opposites and seeing them interact was fun. Ros is rather set in her ways, and opinionated, Cameron is a mature student and happy to earn extra money by agreeing to this arrangement. 

We also get chapters from Darla's viewpoint and she is Ros's best friend and amongst other things is a house and pet sitter and thus a fair bit of comedy comes from her too. 

Lovely characters with a Southampton setting that felt familiar from the small amount of time I have spent there. 

I loved each and every word of this book. 

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