About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Bel Carnegie's life is not perfect. Still recovering from her ex-husband's betrayal she lives with her narcissistic father in the family flat in Earl's Court.

Then one summer she decides to swap the sweltering city for beautiful Cornwall. While renting a little cottage she finds that the sea, sunshine and new friends help heal her damaged heart.

But Bel soon learns that you can't run from the past and it isn't long before it comes knocking once more...

Absolutely loved this and was very sad to finish it. A lovely story to lose yourself in over the summer. I've loved every book by Hilary Boyd and this is up there with the best and I look forward to the next one

Beautiful Summer Escapism!

As usual from Hilary Boyd, a great story and satisfying plot
Well performed by Catherine Bailey.
It is always good to know that this author can write from an older person's point of view, we have feelings too! The characters are well-drawn and believable, that's for sure.

I have a long wait until Hilary Boyd's next book, but it is always worth the wait!

Excellent

I usually love Hilary Boyd books and look forward to hearing them. This however is very twee and predictable. More suited to a Mills & Boon type story. I was bored and very irritated with the heroine who miraculously inherits a cottage just at the right time, makes wonderful friends who are there at the drop of a hat and of course the proverbial love interest.

Very Disappointing
