The blurb:
It’s time for Billie Summers to have an
adventure … but it might not be exactly what she expected
Billie
Summers has always been quite content in her little cottage in the Cotswolds,
sure half the house hasn’t been renovated, but what’s the point when it’s only
her! Working part-time at her uncle’s bookshop and planning 3-4 writer retreats
with her best friend allows her to pay the bills. What more could anyone want?
That is until
Oliver Forest, the bad boy of the book world, turns up to one of her retreats
and points out that Billie hasn’t done anything very adventurous. Couple that
with her best friend falling head over heels and beginning to drift away from
their Friday night wine and dinner plans, Billie is starting to wonder if it
isn’t time she take control of her life.
So she starts
a list: get fitted (properly) for a bra, fix up rest of house, find a ‘career’
and well, get a tattoo … Her life might just get the makeover it needs, too bad
irritating and far-too-attractive for his own good, Oliver keeps showing up …
Because
sometimes you need an adventure!
My Opinion:
*Book
provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review*
I really don’t know how to start this review. At
several times during reading I was tempted to just put it down, because I just
didn’t find a connection to the story and the characters.
I found it really hard to get into the story. The
mixture of characters was weird and confusing and parts of the storyline didn’t
make any sense. I felt like certain things were not well thought out and the
ending was bizarre.
The story has some cute aspects and I liked following
Billie around. Unfortunately, that’s it. I really wanted to like this more, but
I didn’t.
