Heritage Cove is in full swing for
the festive season and as the temperature dips, who will be lucky in love this
Christmas?
It's December in Heritage Cove and along with
the village Christmas tree, frosty mornings and the promise of the most
wonderful time of the year, the new waffle shack is about to open. And its
owner isn't a stranger to the Cove, because after all this time, Daniel is back
to make amends with his brother Harvey – as well as a few other locals he might
have offended along the way.
Fairly new to the village, local blacksmith Lucy
has kept up the pretence of being with her ex for the sake of his gran but
she’s fed up with all the lies. Determined to come clean and live the life she
wants to live, she’s devastated to find that her attraction to Daniel is
tainted by the fact he’s hiding a few things of his own. And his secrets are
ones she isn’t sure she’ll ever be able to get past.
Heritage Cove is full of friendship and
community; it’s a welcoming place people visit and never want to leave. But
will it work its magic for Daniel and Lucy?
A festive read packed with Christmas romance, love and second chances, this is
Book 2 in a series of standalone novels set in Heritage Cove, the little village
by the sea…
My Review:
A return to Heritage Cove and a festive, winter delight.
Although this is the second book in a series by Helen, it can be read as a
standalone (but I do urge you to read ‘Coming Home to Heritage Cove’ too!)
Now lets just address this straight away... waffles are just
everything. Reading this book my mouth was watering constantly. They sound divine,
I swear I could almost smell them as I read about the delicious sounding
flavours. Memories of being able to roam Christmas markets came flooding back
and *drool* - so yeah, you may fancy grabbing something to snack on whilst
reading.
Lovely to hear Lucy’s story, she popped up briefly in the
first book, and she is great, hard working, sensitive and caring. She gives
people chances and isn’t one to shy away from making her feelings known, in
some ways. I was finding myself getting cross at her for listening to idle
gossip and not following her own instincts, although given the situation with
her cousin I can understand her feelings towards Daniel.
Now Daniel sounds dreamy to me, although I may be biased because
he makes the delicious sounding waffles…
He is returning home, and this isn’t met with a very warm
welcome from his brother, who goes out of his way to warn Lucy all about Daniels
past. He has been through a lot and I was swept up in his tale and immediately
on his side, I was getting annoyed that he was regularly unable to explain
himself but with a little bit of meddling this was soon rectified.
Perfect for the
festive season with miracles, special moments and heart warming family reunions;
cosy up to read this great book by Helen J Rolfe – just ensure you have a stack
of waffles to hand!
