Summary

Ellie Truman’s widowed mum is struggling to keep Gwel Teg, the family hotel in Cornwall, afloat. Ellie is determined to do everything in her power to help her, even if that means moving back to the sleepy Cornish village she fled from broken-hearted a few years ago. Things go wrong from the start, and she’s grateful for the help from hunky guest Reece Mitchell. But does Reece have ulterior motives? Will Ellie’s efforts be for nothing?

Predictable but enjoyable

a pleasant story evoking a longing to go to Cornwall but the characters were typically white middle class successful professionals.

Enjoyable story whist working.

A pleasant story- easy listening

Narrator is a little syrupy but otherwise an easy listen. Nothing to strain the brain. Likeable characters, easy plot line, well descripted setting.

Light hearted

If you’re looking for a light hearted book with a bit of romance, then give it a try.
Well narrated with the feel good factor.
Perfect listen if you want something light.

Feel good

I’d love to stay in that hotel with such a beautiful view.
Always love a happy ending. Although I did struggle with the story tellers snappy ending of words and some sentences, a little robotic at times.

Nice story with good narration.

This was a nice story that had likeable characters, and was well narrated.
It was an enjoyable ‘included’ listen.
Nothing overtly sexual or gratuitous.
