Fans of Jill Mansell and Carole Matthews will love this gorgeous new book from the author of the bestselling Cornish Café series.

For the first time in Will’s life, he’s met someone he can’t stop thinking about. But nothing is simple when the woman of your dreams is working for you.
Gaby is running away from painful memories, and where could be more perfect than a remote island off the Cornish coast? But to put the past behind her, she must keep moving … however much she might want to stay.
Nothing is simple, even on paradise. Will love bloom for the residents of the little Cornish Isles?

                                                                        MY THOUGHTS ON THE BOOK                                                             


This book is the second in the Cornish Isles series. It is Phillipa Ashley's second series that is set in Cornwall. In this book, the main characters are twins Jess and Will, whom you may remember from book one of the series. They run the flower farm. They are willing to give up their dreams when their father ran off. They have tried to make the best of a hard situation by trying to run a successful business. Unfortunately being in business with your sibling is hard work, they get into arguments but both love the farm and each other immensely.

After Jess gets dumped by the man of her dreams. While Will has his world is turned upside down by the arrival of a lady named Gaby. She is trying to escape her life, she has many demons in her closet. He tries to resist her but love wins in the end. Of course like any romance novel, there are many more twists and turns. I enjoyed reading all the details about their business, partners, and things like that.

While this is a series, it can be read as a stand-alone. Personally, though I would suggest you give the first book Spring on the Little Cornish Isles: The Driftwood Inn a chance. The reason being is you will understand the characters and settings more. I doubt you will understand all the inside information the author gives you in the first book.

Overall this is an immensely fun novel. It is well written, the characters are wonderful, and the setting is just divine. All the flowers, beautiful locations, and characters were a joy to read about. I can't wait to read more if there is a third book!
