Another precious story with some familiar characters. Deep into the life of someone facing grief, it was very moving at times. But I appreciate the lightheartedness and life-goes-on attitude that bolsters Freya and friends throughout.

The story was going so well, but I had to stop almost halfway in. All the detailed sex scenes aren’t my thing. I listen to audiobooks at home with my family members sometimes walking about. It got a little too steamy! I might try to listen to the rest later, with headphones.

Great reminder of how the lowest points in life can turn into the highest. Perfect book to nestle into a countryside atmosphere, with its ups and downs.

Jenny has a magical way of bringing new characters to life. I truly enjoyed being a part of Gertrude’s life over the chapters! Another sweet story to bring me joy. Thank you Jenny Colgan!

Lovable characters. Sweet and charming village life. Just the story I needed to get me through a rainy Spring.

I love Cressida McLaughlin and have read many of her books. I wasn’t prepared for the steaminess of this one. I often listen to my audiobooks on speaker while I’m cooking cleaning, etc. I had to turn the volume down on this one to shield my family from the drool-worthy descriptions of Jake! Not super complex but a very cute romance, with characters who are overcomers.

Loved the setting, the characters, and the little reminders of friends from past books. Another favorite, a cozy story that I’ll be reading over and over again. Thanks Jenny Colgan!

I’m only halfway through this book and I’ve already embarrassed myself a dozen times by laughing out loud in public with my headphones on. Witty, lonely, late-20-somethings thought processes are hysterical. Brought me back a couple decades. Although I usually go for sweet English countryside stories, I really needed a cute book that would make me laugh! This hit the spot. Thanks as always Jenny Colgan!

A typical Jenny Colgan story with well-developed characters that you fall in love with! Fun and exciting story, with creatures to adore, and nature to appreciate as well. Enjoyed the perspective from the sky too! If you love Neal the puffin, just wait until you meet Barbara the chicken.
