The blurb:
The perfect summer escape…?
Professional dog-walker Felicity Knight loves
everything about New York…until her ex-husband starts working at her local vet
clinic. She hasn’t seen Seth Carlyle in ten years, but one glimpse of him – too
gorgeous, and still too good for her – and Fliss’s heart hurts like their
whirlwind marriage ended yesterday. So when her grandmother in The Hamptons
needs help for the summer, it seems the perfect way to escape her past…
Their relationship might only have lasted a few
scorching months, but vet Seth knows Fliss – if she’s run away to The Hamptons,
it’s because she still feels their connection and it terrifies her. He let her
go once before, when he didn’t know any better, but not this summer! With the
help of his adorable dog Lulu, and a sprinkling of beachside magic, Seth is
determined to make Fliss see that he’s never stopped loving her…
My Opinion:
*Book provided by the publisher in
exchange for an honest review*
Back with Sarah Morgan, back
with the From Manhattan With Love series, yay!!! This is book five of the
series, but I can easily be read as a standalone as well.
This story follows Fliss
Knight, who is a professional dog-walker in New York. She runs her dog walking
company together with her twin sister Harriet. Their brother Daniel played a
really important role in the previous From Manhattan With Love book, go read
it, if you haven’t already ;).
Well, in New York she sees
her ex-husband Seth Carlyle again after ten years. He is a vet now and Fliss
assumes that he works in the city. That’s why she wants to get away as soon as
possible. When her grandmother calls for help, she agrees to look after her in
the Hamptons, even if she has to lie for it.
Of course they bump into
each other again in the Hamptons, because he was actually only helping out in
new York. Fliss starts their encounter with a big lie. Seth figures it out
pretty fast and we all start the journey of finding out what happened between
them ten years ago. It’s full of intense drama, family issues, love and much
more. Fliss is scared to commit to a relationship now. Seth knows that his
feelings haven’t changed and he wants to spend time with her. He wants to take
it slower this time, but it proves to be really hard.
I loved reading about both
Fliss and Harriet, because they are really different. I also really loved their
grandmother, who added some funny sparks to the story.
The setting of these lovely
beaches in the Hamptons is fabulous, Sarah Morgan really knows how to keep you
in the story. Her writing is fascinating, engaging, funny, romantic and very
special. Reading the scenes between Seth and Fliss was wonderful, because their
spark is unique and Sarah Morgan captured it beautifully. There was never a
dull moment in this story and the storyline has a great flow.
It was lovely to bump into some familiar characters
and catching up with them. And the dogs, as well as some new characters, were
cute and sweet.
So here is another fabulous Sarah Morgan book! She is
such a talented author, who always finds new and unique storylines and creates
a wonderful atmosphere around them. Can’t wait for her next book.
