Publisher's summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

When Cass is asked by her father to take on a rare photography project in the Caribbean islands, she really can't see a reason to say no.

But she soon discovers she has more on her plate than photographs, as the remote island has just been hit by a severe hurricane, leaving mass destruction in its wake.

And then she meets Ranulph who it turns out is a bit of an expert in finding the rare rock carvings her father wants her to photograph.

Ranulph insists they must first help the locals in clearing the island and re-building it before they begin their own expedition.

Their journey leads Cass down a path of bravery and self-discovery, and she soon falls for the handsome Ranulph who has been by her side every step of the way.

But does he feel the same?

A tale of friendship, courage and romance, a Katie Fforde novel is here.

unexpectedly disappointed

I have enjoyed every Katie Fforde book until this one. if you told me this is her first book published decades later it would make sense. it is missing the lightness and humour of her other books and seems so " earnest". I did not smile I am sure, just plodded on thinking it will get better. It didn't.
The reader does not do a good accent and it was just, disappointing. I felt no connection to the lead character and her love interest was like a refugee from the early 1960's. There are dozens, hundreds of books available like this one. its not awful, but is titally forgettable. Katie Fforde has not reached her normal standard.
