The blurb:
Hannah can't believe it when she's offered a trip to sunny Spain
with her best friend and dreamy boss . . . what's the catch?
Twenty-eight year old Hannah is ready for an
adventure. She and her colleagues are in Spain for a month to film a
documentary, and it's a dream come true. Not least because Hannah will get to
spend long summer days with Theo, her boss (and crush). If only Tom (Hannah's
best friend and cameramen) and Claudette (the presenter) would stop getting in
the way...
Then things become even more complicated when
Nancy, Hannah's half-sister arrives. What on earth is she doing here?
For once in her life, can't Hannah just have one
perfect summer, free of any drama?
My Opinion:
Isabelle Broom is a pro when it comes
to waking the travel bug in you. She did it in her previous books and also with
this one.
This time we are taken to Mojàcar,
Analusia, Spain. We follow Hannah, who is going to Spain with her colleagues to
film a documentary. It takes her back to her childhood, when she used to spend
a lot of time there. Now, she gets to experience it with her best friend Tom
and her boss Theo. She’s had a crush on him for a really long time and now she
finally gets to spend time with him alone.
When her half-sister Nancy shows up,
everything gets more complicated and Hannah is not happy at all. There is also
Claudette, the French presenter, who know things about Theo, nobody else knows.
This drives Hannah crazy.
The book is about friendship and
romance and when you add some drama it gets more intense. I didn’t like all the
characters, I had problems warming up to them and I didn’t know what to think
of Hannah. I really liked her at times and then sometimes I didn’t understand
her. What I really liked about this story is that fact that it is not
predictable at all. You think you know how it’s going to end, but there are a
few surprises, which is fab.
I really felt like being in lovely
Andalusia with the characters. Isabelle Broom describes the setting beautifully
and also captures smell, atmospheres and much more.
It’s the perfect holiday read, it will
take you away from horrible weather and transport you to another world. I
really enjoyed this book!
