Predictable, easy, light read. A grandmother and granddaughter switch places for a few months. One moves to London and the other moves to the Yorkshire Dales. Fun and light.

Reread this book- perfectly captures the idea of a woman trying to find love in the different phases of life. I found myself laughing out loud and crying because I‘ve truly been there. I love the series of interconnected short stories. A book that I and a lot of women can relate to, from not being taken seriously, to seeking approval, to giving your all to someone who just isn‘t right

I'm shocked that I enjoyed this as much as I did. There were places where I giggled. It was truly funny. The serious parts were written without banter. Touching, charming, a good read. I only chose it for the prompt. I would never have picked it up on my own. Good gravy, I love reading challenges. Seven sins in title ##SPNBOOKBINGO2025 @OutsmartYourShelf

Spotify keeps trying to push the new Geese album on me, but I've been grooving to Olivia Dean recently. At 26, she is definitely a talent to keep an eye on. I love her breezy R&B sound, and she was just announced as an upcoming musical guest on SNL.

All the trappings of a romance novel, a grieving widowed wife crosses path with a well-known artist, Ian while trying to escape in a tiny town. With her nursing skills, she helps deliver a baby in town but loses the mom during labor. After promising to raise the baby, Wren, Tess finds herself immersing herself into the community and dancing her way out of grief from loss & possibly falling head over heels for Ian, too.

This was such an exciting novel. The end really took me off guard. I‘m so excited to see how it all ends in the final book. It‘s such a great series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
