"A delightful, well written tale, full of wonderful characters in a charming setting. I loved it!" - Katie Fforde
Starting over never tasted so good
Holly Berry has it all; a good corporate career, a
steady boyfriend, and enough savings that they will soon be able to buy a nice
little house. But when she finds out her boyfriend has been cheating on her,
she decides to retreat to the Cotswolds and a place full of far sweeter
memories.
Quite literally.
However when Holly discovers the quaint village
sweet shop that she worked in as a teenager is starting to crumble she decides
that maybe the sensible life isn’t what she wants after all. Putting all her
chocolate eggs in one basket, she says goodbye to the city, and sets her sights
on Just One More.
After all, how hard can running a sweet shop be?
With charismatic Giles, ready to rescue her at every
turn and the local bureaucrats breathing down her neck, it certainly isn’t the
quiet life she expected. Can Holly really save the place from the the wicked
developers, or will she be the reason Just
One More closes its doors for good?
Full of laughter, sweet clean romance and cozy village life, The Sweet Shop of Second Chances will make
you believe that the best things in life really are worth fighting for.

A mouth watering, sweet treat of a
book – and a pleasure to know it’s the first in a series! Finishing this story
left me with a smile on my face, a hankering for some treats and dreaming of a
little trip to the glorious sounding Cotswalds.
Our main character, Holly, is a sensible young woman. Years if seeing her Mum
ans Dad struggling to get by has left her working hard to save money and make
sure she can invest in her future. Finding her partner in bed with another
woman, Holly flees and goes back to the village in which she grew up. Holly
needs to make some decisions about her future so when she’s revisiting her past,
Holly looks to her former teenage place of work, Just One More; the village
sweet shop. Her arrival is just in time– developers want to buy it. Holly uses
those savings to try and save the sweet shop – can she turn things around for
both herself and the sweet shop?
Holly has the support of friends, both old and new who help her every step of
the way but for all those that want to help there is someone very keen to see
her fail. Can she stop them ruining her plans and can she discover who doesn’t
have her best interests at heart.
This is funny, heart warming and enjoyable
from start to finish. Holly is a really likeable character who I wanted everything
to work out for.
I am really pleased there are more
to follow as I’d love to know what happens next.
