Sweet novella

What a sweet novella that gives us a summer romance that turns into so much more. When Lavender is wronged by her ex she is encouraged to return to Kentbury, her hometown, and recoup and regroup. What she finds when she gets there adds to her stress. Sinclair is back in Kentbury with his siblings to escape the fact his ex-wife is getting married. Even though it has been eight years he is still alone. When he meets Lavender he starts to want things he never thought he would and they both find what was missing in their lives.

Grace Grant and Connor Crais narrate this novella and I enjoyed them both. I love this small town and how the love seems to flow from it. It's a sweet book.

Wonderful Story & Listen🎧Heartfelt & Delightful!

It is great to be back in Kentbury for another amazing tale, a heartwarming small town romance that is captivating from start to end. There is nothing like a summer romance, even for those who were not looking and never saw it coming. This fourth book of the series is Lavender and Sinclair McFolley’s story and it packs a whole lot of story for a novella sized book, one I could not get enough of. Lavender needs to get away and goes to their family’s home in Kentbury, but as she is settling in she gets unexpected visitors, the new owners. Her parents never told her they sold the home and the new owners were understanding of her mistake, but the brother who did not seem to fit in was not. Sinclair is a busy man, but he made some time to help his siblings run a summer camp, besides he could use the break, especially after hearing his ex is getting remarried. It was great to watch Lavender and Sinclair get to know each other, and even find themselves. I loved how everything played out, and the dialogue and back-and-forth banter were brilliant, both in person and via text. This wonderfully written and plotted story has the perfect balance of drama, charm, heartfelt emotions and a slow burn and steamy romance. Claudia Burgoa, thank you for another fabulous story and emotional rollercoaster ride. Escapism at its best, an enjoyable summer romance to enjoy anytime of the year! 

🎧📚🎧 The perfect pairing, Connor Crais and Grace Grant, did a wonderful job bringing these characters to life and did so with a complete understanding of who they were portraying, giving each a voice that was fitting and was believable in every role. Crais nailed it as Sinclair, perfectly grumpy to so much more, and Grant was just as fabulous as Lavender, grasping all aspects of her personality. Both were equally amazing performing the roles of the secondary characters too. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the characters’ emotions and had you feeling them all. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to and their performance elevates this already fantastic story to another level. Thank you for another fabulous listen.

4 1/2 stars. Enjoyed the story and narration.

4 1/2 stars for me. This was a fun story. Kentbury worked its magic once again. Lavender came to get herself together, planning on staying at the family home. Surprised, Lavender found that it no longer belonged to her family. Sinclair came to Kentbury to help his family and take a needed break from work. Lavender and Sinclair lit a spark which grew as they worked at the summer camp. I enjoyed the witty banter and blossoming love as these two found their HEA.

The narration by Grace Grant and Connor Crais added a lot of emotion and life to the story. They kept me listening to the story.

I was given a copy, and this is my unsolicited review.

Small Town Romance!

Summer in Kentbury was a heartfelt, strangers-to-lovers, small-town romance that left me wanting more. feeling all warm. Lavender and Sinclair were a perfect match. The chemistry between these two was undeniable, the banter was hilarious and the slow-burn romance was captivating.

I listened to the audio version performed by Grace Grant and Connor Crais and they did an amazing job bringing this story to life. Claudia did another amazing job writing this novella!

Charming, heartfelt love story!

Kentbury swept me away again in this charming, heartfelt love story! There's nothing better than a small town romance, where everyone is close-knit, and love blossoms in the most unexpected places. Lavender and Sinclair are both at a crossroads in their life, and came to Kentbury to rejuvenate. Lavender was betrayed and needs to find the happiness she had when vacationing in Kentbury as a young girl, and Sinclair is a workaholic who is afraid he isn't cut out for true love. Their first meeting was awkward, but they soon connected, building a friendship they both needed. Their slow-burn attraction and relationship was so beautiful to witness. I loved how they were there for each other as they navigated through the situations that had them running to Kentbury in the first place. This book was so precious. Despite being a novella, it had wonderful depth, and authentic raw emotion that made it easy to be drawn in and fall in love with Lavender and Sinclair too. I loved watching Lavender bloom and find her footing, and watch broody Sinclair's walls fall as he fought for himself and for love. I also loved seeing Sinclair's family who I grew to care for from past books.
I really enjoyed listening to the wonderful narration by Grace Grant and Connor Crais! Grant's voice and intonations are so gleeful even as she expresses deeper emotions and Crais easily portrayed Sinclair from broody to charming and swoony. They were absolutely perfect as Lavender and Sinclair, and I was completely absorbed in their performance. I really enjoyed this heartwarming story, with all it's feels, and it had me smiling big when I was finished.

The best was saved for last!

This may be my favorite installment in Kentbury Tales. It was a perfect summer novella if you love a vacation fling that turns into the sweetest HEA. It was sweet and a little spicy but cute and fun at the same time.

Lavender and Sinclair (Lav & Sin) didn't exactly hit it off at first but that quickly changed once they got a chance to know each other. It was clear they had a connection but both were overcoming traumas from past relationships. The comfort and healing they found in one another was heartwarming.

The text exchanges while they were long distance "friends" made them grow closer than I think either of them realized until they were reunited. Sin definitely fell first but Lav wasn't far behind. When they finally connected on a deeper (intimate) level it was game over for both of them.

Grace Grant and Conner Crais were fantastic as Lav and Sin. They narrated this couple perfectly.

I'll gladly take a trip to Kentbury anytime!

Wonderful narration for a fantastic story

I love my visits to Kentbury and Sinclair McFolley and Lavender’s journey is a wonderful addition to the series. If you love small town romance look no further than Claudia Burgoa’s latest series. What starts as a friendship could soon becomes so much more if they are prepared to take a leap of faith and jump into the world of love. Connor Crais and Grace Grant did a wonderful job bringing the characters and their story to life. They were spot on with the chemistry, the banter and the friendship and they were also very easy to listen to. Summer In Kentbury is a well written, entertaining, friends to lovers romance that I highly recommend. Can’t wait to see where Ms Burgoa takes us next.
