Publisher's summary

A warm welcome awaits...

The charming new arrival from the number one best-selling author of The Canal Boat Cafe.

Robin Brennan has come home to Campion Bay. Now her parents have retired, she's set to become the new landlady of The Campion Bay Guesthouse.

Bookings have been as thin as the hand towels, and it doesn't take long for Robin to realise that the place needs a serious makeover. Perhaps throwing herself into the task will help to heal her sadness at the tragic end to her dreams in London. As she gives the guesthouse a new lease of life, Robin encounters old friends and new, including old flame Tim, who'd clearly like to reboot their romance. But what about Will, the new arrival at No. 4, who's rocked up with the cutest dog ever? Caught up in a flurry of full-English breakfasts and cream teas, Robin's never sure what, or who, the next check-in will bring....

Too Sweet and Sappy, Cheesy Narration Style

I’m sorry to be writing an unfavorable review. It just wasn’t very good. The narrator made the characters speak like people in a Micky Mouse Club skit—over the top cheesy, like injecting a cutesy laugh into a sentence, and other grating things. Writing “read” like a voice-over, repeating the plot turns over and over in leu (sp?) of developing their actual thoughts and ideas. We knew every single thing which was going to happen, then heard about it about 3 times at least. I’m sorry, I just don’t want anyone else to waste a credit. Sometimes a good story overcomes narration but not true in this case.
