I was absolutely enthralled from the start; I didn’t want to
put it down for a second. Having read books by Katie before, I was expecting a wonderful
storyline and a character I would really take a shine to and she didn’t disappoint.
Amelia hasn’t returned to Meadow Farmhouse for quite some
time; and the death of her Great Aunt Vera means she is now the owner. Leaving
her home in Paris, Amelia plans on sorting out the bits and pieces before
selling it on…to her this isn’t home, just somewhere she grew up. But returning
starts to reveal secrets that Amelia had no idea about, soon she’s keen to find
answers. Returning to Meadow Farmhouse also means confronting someone from her
past, her former love, Adam. Unsure of his reaction or how she may feel, could
it be possible she’d manage to avoid him completely.
As she confronts the ghosts of her past, the more she starts
to feel that she has come home and maybe it is somewhere she could belong.
Amelia is a lovely character, she is determined, strong
willed but has had a difficult upbringing. She feels like she doesn’t belong,
and it takes a journey for her to realise the friends she had aren’t the
genuine kind and she has to forgive the mistakes people make when they are
hurting themselves. She learns that home is always where your heart is.
Warm and cosy, leaving you happy and satisfied – an ideal book for shutting out the world.
KATIE GINGER lives by the sea in the south-east of England, and apart from holidays to very hot places where you can sit by a pool and drink cocktails as big as your head, she wouldn’t really want to be anywhere else. The Secrets of Meadow Farmhouse is her seventh novel. She is also the author of the Swallowtail Bay series – Spring Tides at Swallowtail Bay, Summer Strawberries at Swallowtail Bay and Winter Wishes at Swallowtail Bay, Snowflakes at Mistletoe Cottage and the Seafront series – The Little Theatre on the Seafront, shortlisted for the Katie Fforde Debut Novel of the Year award, and Summer Season on the Seafront.
When she’s not writing, Katie spends her time with her husband and two
kids, and their dogs: Wotsit, the King Charles spaniel, and Skips, the
three-legged rescue dog. (And yes, they are both named after crisps!)
