An Italian Island Summer by Sue Moorcroft

I always enjoy a good Sue Moorcroft book and this one is no exception, I loved it! We meet Ursula Quinn, who is 32, divorced and originally from Dublin, but now living in Brighton, England. The family is gathered in Dublin, so we meet Ursula’s siblings Finola, Sorcha and Caden and their parents Stanley and…

The Silver Ladies Do Lunch by Judy Leigh

Judy Leigh (and her alter ego Elena Collins) is one of those authors I endeavour to read everything they ever write and I have already pre-ordered her new cosy crime book Foul Play at Seal Bay (out in August). I love her writing, especially its warmth, authenticity and that she has the best older characters!…

The Wagging Tails Dogs’ Home by Sarah Hope

Boldwood Books publish a whole variety of wonderful books and when I saw there was one set in a dogs’ home, I knew it was something I would want to read. I got into it straight away, the characters you meet in the first chapter all seem lovely and you are drawn into the story…

Murder in the Scottish Hills by Lydia Travers

It is 1911 and Maud is in Edinburgh at her friend…

Fly Me To Paris by Helga Jensen

I really enjoyed Helga Jensen’s second novel – A Scandinavian Summer – and was very excited to read her latest novel, this time taking the readers to France for an adventure. The main character here is Penny, who has just turned fifty. How I love books with women in around my age, that’s always a…
