Synopsis

Tess Tyler needs a break. Weighed down by her high-pressure job and her demanding father, she’s left little time to take care of herself. But after a shocking discovery sends her spiralling, she flees to Wynmouth, the seaside town she fell in love with as a child, to escape it all. 

 With its sandy beaches, stunning rock pools and welcoming community, Tess feels like she can finally breathe again. And as she grows ever closer to local barman Sam, she dares to dream that she might never return to her real life. But when a familiar face returns to town, Tess realises that there are secrets in Wynmouth too, and that her own past may be about to catch up with her. 


My Review

This is the first Heidi Swain book I have read and OMG I can't wait to read more. ( The Cherry Tree Cafe has made it into my TBR pile now.)  It deserves every star I have given it. I absolutely loved it. I'm sad to of finished it. I loved this book from start to finish. Its a lovely lighthearted easy read. I fell in love with the characters and the tranquil seaside setting. 
I thought it was going to be predictable but I was so wrong, It was full of twists and turns that I just did not see coming and kept me wanting to read more. Its left me wanting to go and stay in Wynmouth, meet all the characters and experience it all for myself.
I will definitely be keeping my eye out for more from this author. 
 
Thank you Heidi Swain, Simon & Schuster UK and Netgalley for allowing me to read and review this wonderful book.
