My Rating: 4.5 Favorite Quotes: ‘… how does a blind date grab you?’ ‘You’re talking to someone who hasn’t been grabbed for years.’ Just as love isn’t an emotion, it isn’t ruled by a stopwatch either. My Review: Nicola May has a keen sense of humor and I revel in her wicked clever wit and wry levity. The s Leggi tutto

Nicola May expertly weaves together threads of drama, emotion, and romance in this delightful story. I fell in love with Nicholas riding when I read “The Corner Shop in Cocklebery Bay”. This is the second book in this enchanting series, but it can without a doubt be read as a standalone. I thought Leggi tutto

Van deel 1 werd ik super enthousiast, dus ik had na een heftige thriller erg veel zin om dit deel te gaan lezen. Even verstand op 0 en gaan. Al snel begon ik wat te mopperen, want de drama in dit boek is grotendeels gebouwd op de miscommunicatie trope. En als er een trope is die ik haat is dat wel d Leggi tutto

Ik vond deze nog mooier dan deel 1. Ik vind het zo fijn dat de personages echte, onverstandige fouten maken, zonder dat de schrijfster daar een oordeel over heeft.

It was fabulous to be reunited with my favourite little sausage dog Hot, and his owner Rosa, new husband Josh, Titch the best friend, and all the residents of Cockleberry Bay.

Unfortunately ... I wanted to give this series another chance but I was so annoyed by this second book. I already had my doubts about the first of this series, but no. NO! NO!!!

Je kunt van alles over ‘Ik zie je in Cockleberry Bay’ van Nicola May zeggen, maar één ding is zeker: Nicola May weet je door haar schrijfstijl helemaal mee te nemen naar een nieuwe wereld. Een wereld waarin zonneschijn en regenbuien in het leven van onze realistische karakters zich sneller dan verwa Leggi tutto

Rosa, the heroine of book one, 'The Cornershop in Cockleberry Bay', is now married to the lovely and handsome Josh. But their happiness is marred by too much time spent apart. Josh has his job in London while Rosa attends to her corner shop in a remote Devon village. This forced separation brings th Leggi tutto

This is the second book that is set in Cockleberry Bay. Personally I would recommend reading the first book prior to this one to get the most enjoyment but the author does cover a lot of what went in the previous book in this one so readers won’t feel too lost. It was so lovely to be back with the ch Leggi tutto
