Bonfires & Hot
Chocolate (at the Little Duck Pond Café)
If you love all the colours
of autumn, you're sure to warm to this uplifting story of love, loss and
starting over.
Primrose Wilkins arrived in Sunnybrook with a burning desire to find the family she's never known. But after a heart-breaking false start, she's beginning to have second thoughts. Can she find the courage to battle on in her quest? And with her romantic life at an all-time low, will meeting the intriguing and attractive Callum Davy be just what she needs to renew her faith in love?
Meanwhile, Fen is also finding it hard to be brave. She's made it through to the final of TV show 'Battle of the Bakes' (thanks to Ellie entering on her behalf), but she's always shied away from being in the spotlight. How will Fen cope now that she's a famous 'celebrity', recognised in the street everywhere she goes?

My Review
So pleased to have another visit to The Little Duck Pond Café;
such wonderful characters that feel like friends, I have grown very fond of
them all. This wonderfully autumnal visit sees us enjoy Halloween and Bonfire
Night – where sparks fly in more ways than one (of course!)
This time we focus on the lovely, bright and relatively new addition
to Sunnybrook, Primrose. She came to find her birth Grandmother and throughout
this book we see her, finally manage to start piecing together the clues.
It is such a moving and heart-warming visit and there is a lot of emotion throughout; especially as Primrose goes to clear the farmhouse where she’d lived with her dearly departed Gran. I will leave you in suspense as to the discoveries Primrose makes but I’ll say that what does happened changes things for more people than just Primrose.

Two gorgeous, kind, and decent love interests for the delightful
girl – I was always rooting for one over the other, I have a soft spot for the
character anyway, and it was great to see how the relationship develops.
Every addition to this series is special, and I would
completely recommend reading them all but you could read this as a standalone (
but go on, treat yourself to the others too!) I cannot wait to read more about
Sunnybrook and these wonderful people, I know there is another coming up but I
hope that Rosie can keep them coming!
A gorgeously cosy read, very feel good and ideal to snuggle
up with this autumn. I highly recommend!
Author BioRosie has been scribbling
stories ever since she was little.
Back then, they were rip-roaring adventure tales with a young heroine in perilous danger of falling off a cliff or being tied up by 'the baddies'.
Thankfully, Rosie has moved on somewhat, and now much prefers to write romantic comedies that melt your heart and make you smile, with really not much perilous danger involved at all - unless you count the heroine losing her heart in love.
Rosie's brand new series of novellas is centred around life in a village cafe. The latest, 'Bonfires & Hot Chocolate at the Little Duck Pond Cafe', is out now.
Watch out for 'A Winter Wedding at the Little Duck Pond Cafe', which will be published Christmas 2019.
Rosie is also writing a full-length, standalone book for Christmas 2019, entitled 'Snowflakes over Moondance Cottage'.
