The blurb:
Pull up a deck chair and bask in the beautiful sunshine on
Buttercup Beach. The sand is warm, the sea is sparkling blue and romance is
sizzling in the air…
For two years Freya Greene has hidden the fact that she’s totally and
utterly in love with her best friend Rome Lancaster. It’s not been easy – they work together in his
glasswork business, she lives above his workshop and, he’s completely gorgeous.
But Rome has never shown any sign of returning those feelings. Until now…
Lately they’ve shared affectionate touches and
words heavy with meaning. Yet Freya knows Rome has a damaged heart. After
losing his fiancé in a tragic accident, he’s not allowed himself to fall in
love.
Freya has already had her heart broken by a man
who couldn’t let go of a past love. Can she risk it happening again? Rome and
Freya have a friendship that could blossom into something more. Are they both
brave enough to take that chance?
My Opinion:
*Book provided by the publisher in
exchange for an honest review*
It’s always so lovely to be back in a Holly Martin
book, because she knows how to create a unique atmosphere. This is book 2 of
the Hope Island series, so it’s great to familiar with some characters and
settings already.
This story follows Freya Greene, who is in love with
her best friend Rome Lancaster. She works for him, which is not always easy.
Rome is gorgeous, but he doesn’t seem to return her feelings, until now… And
there is also the fact that his fiancé died a few years ago.
As the story develops their feelings for each other
get stringer and also Rome realises that she is special. Best friends become
lovers and more and that was great to follow. Freya and Rome make a wonderful
couple and they are also fab characters. I loved reading about familiar people
and the setting around this story is just so lovely.
I was hooked from the first moment and couldn’t put
the book down! There is plenty of romance in this book and the storyline is
full of twists and turns. This book just gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling
inside and it’s the perfect summer read!
